SUNNYSIDE FOOD CENTER


CHARLIE AND MARVIN KAUFMAN

In front of the original Sunnyside Food Center on Main Street.
There's a funny story that's been passed down through the family: My father, Charlie, was a very strong man, but short in stature. Four foot eleven. On a good day. The story goes that one day while working behind his butcher block, Jack Quint walked in with the very young Alan in his arms, pointed to my father, and said "see that? If you don't eat your food, you'll wind up looking like HIM". Then he turned and walked out. The end.
