I believe years ago this was a place called Napoli's. It had a white and black front.

Your right Joe: I remember that. I wonder if people remember Thatcher's Funeral Home that was down the street. or the pharmacy on the corner of Elmer and Hudson St. That's going way back, We got most of our bread from Peoples Bakery. I think the owner of Peoples was married to Genieve Jovenetti, Virginia Conti was a Jovenetti girl. I'm not sure of spelling the names right. Regards Ralph

I remember Thatcher's Pharmacy. The Pharmacy is now home to the Italian American Hall of Fame. I also remember the Funeral Home on Hudson St, but I am sure of the name. We used to buy our bread at New Colonial Bakery. I believe they had the best bread.

Your right again Joe. The bakery we used was New Colonial, not Peoples. I knew the people who owned it but I can't remember their name. I do remember he was married to the Govenetti girl. I wanted to tell you earlier that I ran into Pete Gaufetti again on Genesee St. in the 40s. We lived there right before I was drafted
