Peace of Pizza


There is a pizza shop called "Peace of Pizza" and the sign in their window reads: "Sorry We Are Open!" Very clever indeed but the store has little to do with my story. I just thought I would throw it in because it is cute and clever!!! However.....pizza has lots to do with my story!!!!



6 years ago, a pizza shop opened up about 3 blocks from my house. I would go at least once a week for pizza and became friends with the 2 owners. One was in his 40's and the other was in his mid 20's. I knew them on a first name basis as they also knew me in the same manner.

One day, I was telling my son about this pizza place and mentioned the owner's name who was his age. As it turned out, my son worked at a company in North Jersey with the owner's best friend. My son also became roommates with the owner's best friend for a year or so until my son moved to VA. They have kept in touch for the past 3 years and my son just got together with him this past weekend to watch the Phillies game!!!

They have since sold the pizza shop but the memory lives on...oh, and another weird coincidence......the best friend/roommate of my son's name is my son's father's name!!!
