Show Notes
Earlier this year, a man driving in Chicago’s West Garfield Park neighborhood was shot and killed.
His car smashed through the front of LiFE restaurant on Madison Street.
The incident is an all too-common tragedy for a neighborhood that struggles with violent crime.
It was also a major blow to the mom-and-pop eatery.
Residents worried it would mean the end of one of West Garfield’s few restaurants.
But Joe and Tonya Black - the husband and wife who own and run Life restaurant - repaired the storefront.
