Comment on Berkeley Hat Company on Telegraph Avenue to close after 50 years by soozzie

I've been buying hats at the Berkeley Hat Company almost since it opened. When facing the prospect of chemo and the loss of my hair, I stopped by to find a knitted hat to keep my head warm. I was admiring some hats with decorations and interesting yarn. Carol quietly asked what I was shopping for, and steered me to a group of plain, soft caps, telling me that when I lost my hair my head would be tender and the softer yarns would be more comfortable. She was of course, absolutely right. It was a moment of grace for which I am still, years later, grateful. Thanks, Carol, and happy trails.
