My brother and his wife have been visiting with us for the past few days. Yesterday, my they sat down at the diningroom table and my brother said..."I brought you something"! He reached in his pocket and pulled out a plastic baggie with something that looked like sand in it. On the baggie was written "Dee's Ashes". He had brought me some of my mother's ashes.

The little shop in front is very small - it's more of a stand - but the coffee is very good. The employees are friendly and chat with you, which is a nice change from ordering and being moved down the line (like other places do).
