With the support of her husband Ray, they transformed it into a unique coffee house dedicated to first responders adorned by one of a kind mosaics and custom painted art. The mosaic is a tribute to our first responders and plays off the double meaning of the word Sirens. Every first responder answers the call of the alarm of Sirens alerting to them to possible danger.
