To honor Marilyn "Mort" Lund and Alice Iverson, Reimann returned the name of the Lanesboro cafe to its original name and re-introduced their homemade pizza and broasted chicken.
These days the mother of 2-year-old Emily and wife of Mark is looking to expand her family and sell the cafe.
"It's hard because you really put your heart and soul into a business," she said, adding that she'll probably work there again someday. "I'm sure I won't be gone forever."
