“Roofs should be fixed on sunny days, not rainy days,” says A2Z CEO Chip Perry.
The one-person sales model for car dealerships has been talked about off and on for about 50 years now, with proponents saying it is the way to go.

Elaine Alpert always wears the gold locket she purchased two decades ago at the Mall at Echo Bridge. Inside is a photo of her son, Steve Glidden, as well as a small amount of his ashes, “So he’s always with me,” she said.
Glidden was only 12 when he and three other Oak Hill Middle School students died when a bus carrying 42 children from the school to a music festival overturned on an exit ramp in Sussex, New Brunswick.
Even as Alpert and others prepare to mark the 20th anniversary of the tragedy on April 27, she said “the grief is the same as it was in the first minute … the only difference is that we’ve gotten used to living with it.”

OSWEGO – Treasured Central New York racing competitor ‘Slammin’ Sam Carista of West Monroe, New York, passed away on Friday morning, April 2. He was 90 years old.
A fixture at area short tracks for more than 70 years, Carista raced competitively from 1948 all the way through 2018, when he had his last stint in the 4-Cylinder division at Brewerton Speedway.
Carista has won countless races and track championships at upstate short tracks, and also raced on and off in Oswego’s Supermodified division from 1965 to 1980.
The dirt racer began his Oswego career in ‘65 driving the Caruso / Hackett built No. 113 for car owner Dick Bloom.
