Longtime Honesdale funeral home closes with Bryant’s retirement

Arthur A. Bryant Funeral Home at 1228 N. Main St., Honesdale, closed on Nov. 6, capping over 80 years in business. The closure of one of Honesdale’s two funeral homes came with the retirement of longtime owner Arthur “Art” A. Bryant, who chose not to sell his business. The family business was started by his father, Arthur “Bud” E. Bryant, who began his career in the 1940s and opened the funeral parlor at this location. Art Bryant became a licensed funeral director in 1979. A press release states, “With recent health challenges and a cancer diagnosis, the decision to close his practice has not come easily. Rather than simply selling the business to another Funeral Director, Bryant has chosen to personally recommend that the families who have entrusted him with their care turn to Edward R. Howell, owner and operator of Howell Family Funeral Home, Inc., in Waymart.” “Edward is no stranger to the families I have served. He knows nearly all of them personally. He is a well-known, respected, and trusted Funeral Director who has deep roots in this community.” Bryant said in the press release. “I know his character, his commitment to this profession, and I have complete

Williamsport toy store opening shop number 'too' downtown

Williamsport, Pa. — A new Moose is just around the corner in downtown Williamsport. Moose Too, located at 343 Pine St., Williamsport, neighboring Pine Square, is holding a Grand Opening Party Nov. 13 from 5 to 8 p.m., and everyone is invited to come celebrate the child-like whimsy of adults. Moose Too, sister store to The Mulberry Moose on Mulberry Street, is designed for an older customer, early teen through adult. It has a more "grunge" atmosphere, and some products use some light profanity. The carefully curated collection is meant for laughs and good fun, but parents might want to be cautious with little ones. The Moose Too store will bring new and fun items such as collectable blind boxes, complex and simple puzzles, figure build-kits, stationary, and more! Whether someone is looking for funky socks or silly journals, the goal of the Moose's is to bring a sense of play to their customers. Five years ago, Nicole Desaulniers, owner of The Mulberry Moose toy store, moved to Williamsport to start a new chapter in her life. In early 2024, her idea for The Mulberry Moose was born, and by June, its doors opened at 423 Mulberry Street. The Williamsport
