Ah, Fry's, here's my own personal Fry's timelineI grew up in Hayward, definitely East Bay. Our local grocery store was, Fry's Foods where we did all our grocery shopping. The owner sold the business and gave his kids, including one John C. Fry, shares of the proceeds. They started Fry's Electronics.
I worked a couple of blocks from Fry's in Palo Alto. I spent many a lunch hour strolling the aisles, between there and Tower Records a bit down the street in Los Altos, a good portion of my paycheck was spent.
Fast forward to a few years ago. My daughter started ballet training. The school was the former school of the defunct Silicon Valley/Cleveland Ballet. One of the benefactors of the SVB was one, John C. Fry. One of my daughter's teachers was a former principal dancer of the SVB. She was involved in an "intimate relationship" with Mr. Fry. When my daughter decided to quit, said teacher had just had a baby, fathered by, guess who, John C. Fry.
There is a former Fry's near me that they are turning into a pickle ball center!
