After 20 years of employment he struck out on his own and opened a shop in 1945 on Grant St. in Buffalo, NY where he took is sons Ray and John under his wing and became a teacher. After Alex’s retirement, Ray and John continued the business successfully until 2009 and then entered retirement….Almost…

Ray opened up a gold buying store in Hamburg, NY which ultimately grew into a fine jewelry store.

Michael Baker

At this point, his daughter Lynette and Grandson Michael showed an interest in learning the business so now Ray became a teacher. Thus, the family business started with Father and Sons, and is still today a family business.
