    Please accept my condolences on the passing of your father. Fondly remembering our summer visits to Luxton’s bakery. A real family enterprise that served up mouth watering treats and delicious fresh baked bread. Kids mowing the lawn while others were serving, cooking, cleaning, and stocking the bake shop under the watchful eyes of mom and dad. Great memories!
