Community Rallies Behind Riverside Family Dining
A kitchen fire has turned off the grills at Riverside Family Dining on North Howard Avenue in Croswell, but it has also fired up the community. Owner Tom Pastoria has run the family-owned diner for 32 years, and neighbors are now eager to support his family and the longtime employees who depend on the restaurant. Pastoria says he is determined to get Riverside Family Dining reopened by Christmas. Until the grills are hot again, folks across Croswell and Sanilac County are rallying behind one of their hometown gathering spots.
