Headstone Shop Owner Sells Bread to Improve the Relationship with His Daughter (EXCLUSIVE VIDEO)

As we walked down Graham Avenue in East Williamsburg, we would often pass by a headstone shop that had stacks of bread in the window -- certainly an odd combination. Who was behind the idea to sell bread with cemetery headstones.

Jerry Ragusa, the owner of the funerary business told us that this is "the best bread above ground", or, if we preferred, "the bread to die for". So we decided to enquire further. Watch the video to hear why Ragusa decided to sell focaccia and baguettes along with marble cemetery monuments:

Nice. We need more families like this, trying to succeed in business, trying to build their family relationships. Although the pairing may seem odd, if it works, it works. Good for them.

Thank you for the heartwarming story. I recall my father trying to make conversation with me when I was 18, not easy. My father is now 88, he enjoys reading the newspaper daily. We talk politics and current events. I cherish each moment with my father, can relate to Jerry cherishing those moments with his daughter.
