Next month the Jewish Community Center will honor Max at a surprise brunch. I am proud to have been asked to participate in this event. Max is the owner of one of WilkesBarres finest retailers. Bartikowsky Jewelers. The store has been an institution in downtown WilkesBarre ever since Maxs grandfather emigrated from Poland and founded the store 100 years ago. While other stores have fled for suburban shopping malls. it is a testament to Maxs commitment to WilkesBarre that his store has remained as a cornerstone of downtown. The business has always been an extension of the Bartikowsky familys commitment to civic involvement by being a key supporter of the United Way.
