From Jack Moss: "Sol met Rose Cohen in a subway. The story is he finished reading a newspaper and she picked it up to read. Sol moved to Queens where he was a furrier. He made coats and jackets for Macy’s. Sol was the business end of the business and Abraham was the sales and customer service person. Abraham decided to move to Brooklyn with Hannah and opened a candy store. Sol and Rose married on February 2, 1925. Sol became a U.S. Citizen on April 11, 1933.
