Apt commemoration this sesquicentennial, tho not in the way weβd hopedβ¦
A small memorial outside Ray's Candy Store in the East Village pays tribute to Stella Soltowska, who worked here for nearly 50 years. She died last week at age 80.
The East Village is remembering Stella Soltowska of Rayβs Candy Store (113 Avenue A). Stella, who worked at Rayβs for nearly 50 years, died last week at age 80.
A memorial has formed outside the shop. Friends note the best way to help is to stop by and support the store.

50 yrs ago today I had a near death journey from an electrical accident. It changed my life and saved it. I told the story on The Moth a few years ago themoth.org/stories/insi...
