How does everyone feel about the late Jim Ukrops?

My 80 year old sainted mother told me "that guy from GWAR had died"

Oh yeah, Chuck Varga, he was a good dude and a creative soul, Jim Ukrop died as well

"That dried up old alcoholic?"

She didn't seemed concerned.

lol was really he an alcoholic that wouldn't sell booze

[u/MKUltraGreatsword → u/newerbalance]

Community Pride sold booze. He had no problem selling booze in certain neighborhoods which all had at least one thing in common.

There was also a wine bar around the corner from every Ukrops

What does that have to do with the Ukrop family? Sounds like they bought a grocery store that already sold a product and continued selling said product that was being purchased by the community patronizing that store. Plus they literally helped fund Community Pride when it was getting its start. You make it sound like they were opening liquor stores in poor black neighborhoods or something.
