PITTSTON — Kaylin Fumia, 13, always wanted to have a lemonade stand. After all, her family’s home is located on Broad Street, which is busy enough to attract potential customers and drum up lots of business.

Her grandfather, Jeff Branas, said he would build one, but unfortunately, he passed away unexpectedly in 2017.

This year, Kaylin’s mom, Sabrina, feeling sad over the loss of her father, told her mother, Francine Arcaro-Branas, that she wished her dad were still here to build a lemonade stand for the children.

Never having built anything, except a great Italian meal as owner of Arcaro’s – The Next Generation, Arcaro-Branas went to Lowe’s to pick up material and built the stand.

Eventually, Kaylin became a big sister to Natalie, now 6. And now they have a stand to sell refreshments.
