Mayor R.T. Rybak paid tribute on Facebook Friday afternoon to business owner Reuven Rahamim, who was murdered Thursday night in Bryn Mawr's workplace shooting.
Rybak and U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison toured the business with Rahamim this August, accompanied by U.S. Under Secretary of Commerce Francisco Sanchez. "Reuven was so proud of everything that he and his family have built in this country, and he had a right to be," Rybak wrote.
The mayor posted a picture of the event. The company provided two others.
