      Unfinished business: Isaac Ehrlich prepares for jewelry sale and the eventual disposal of his father's jewelry store in Leaside. Ehrlich's father, Israel, who had operated the Bayview Ave. shop for 22 years, was gunned down Dec. 8. Now, says Isaac, the store holds too many memories for the family to keep it operating.
