Bedford Jewelers
owners say while COVID-19 made things more challenging, it was time to retire.
The store has been
a fixture in Ridge Plaza for over two decades, with the area being its fifth
home.
The founder built
his business as a way to give his family a secure life in America after World
War II. He says now that his children are nearing retirement age, he's ready
for a new chapter.
The store will
still be selling jewelry over the next few days.
Harry Weinroth and his wife, Ruth, say the most important thing they learned has nothing
to do with gems or metals, but instead the value of honesty in building a bond
with people.
The
final day to stop in is on Saturday.
