Teary Shutter Signage to the Max
Thursday, February 21, 2008

Are you prepared for one of the weepiest shutter signs you've ever seen? Get ready because 32 year-old Cafe La Fortunata, reported earlier as shuttering next week, has a real tear jerker up right now that raises the bar for teary signage everywhere. It goes something like this: "last month my beloved wife whom I had always referred to as 'The Heart & Soul of Cafe La Fortunata' passed away. A piece of me died. The fond memories of her & LaFortunata will stay with me until I join her in heaven." [Urbanite]
