Parke Spicer, left, original owner of Parke's Place in Preston, raises his mimosa for a toast, after his daughter Beverly Coti, behind him, current owner of the diner, finishes saying a few words to customers and family members after he became too emotional to speak on the last day of business after 20-years in business on Sunday. Everybody was given champagne or a mimosa for the speech. The owner of the property in Preston died recently and the heirs will not renew the diners lease so they need to be out by the end of the month.
