That's good news and bad news (that she is reopening and that he passed away).
Must be tough to run a small, storefront business, esp. in the quirky "dead zones" of Highland, etc. I wonder if banding together to do some sort of "First Friday" sale type thing like galleries do would increase traffic/presence and have shared advertising through some sort of coupon booklety thing.
I had a silly business idea the other day in posting @ the lack of a place around here to by decent bread: a "What You Want" store. We would stock what you want- bread/bagels from Iggy's, assortment's from Trader Joe's, cool sun glasses, and basically whatever (enough) people wanted. It would be a fun experiment..before going completely broke...
But to satisy my curiosity, what would you want that you can't get easily around here?
