It has expanded four times in their 50-year history. Herbert died in 2002 at 78. His son, Michael, operates the store now. Michael has two sisters, Minda and Marcia. My wife and I were on the Board of Directors at the Fayetteville YMCA in the early 1980s and the Fleishman sisters worked as directors for the "Y's" daycare center at the time, so we had a close connection with them.
