“More than 40 years later, while nearly every storefront around her changed, Polkadots & Moonbeams remained the store of 3rd St.” “For more than 45 years, she made every person who walked through the doors of Polkadots & Moonbeams feel like the center of the universe,” Milo added. “She had this extraordinary gift for seeing people — not just how they looked, but how they wanted to feel.
” Freedman is survived by her sons, Milo and Dave Borsuk; her life partner, Vincent DiNunzi; her brother, Craig Freedman; and her stepsiblings, Dave Cohen, Julie Cohen and Dan Cohen.
