Gary and Diane Reedy have been together for more than forty years and have seen many seasons together.
People usually look forward to the day of their retirement when they can finally relax and spend the rest of their life with their family, contemplating life.
However, this is not the case with Gary and Diane Reedy of Fairfax County. Instead of opting retirement, this couple has decided to open a toastery at RTC West, 12100 Sunset Hills Road. They have named it Famous Toastery and it serves brunch and breakfast.
The first official opening of the Famous Toastery was held on Monday, following a soft opening over the weekend. The sales of the weekend were donated to a non-profit organization, Cornerstone.
Diane Reedy is a former World Bank employee while her husband Gary Reedy was a high school teacher and coach. Before opening Famous Toastery, the couple has ventured in several businesses. However, they have sold off their other ventures and opted for Famous Toastery.
Gary Reedy chuckled, “The problem is that we can’t ever stop. I can’t play golf every single day. We’ve had our careers and retirements and a couple of kids. Sometimes, I wonder how we did it all, but we’re young at heart and we want to stay involved.”
Diane Reedy also added, “Simon’s vision for Reston was to include people from all different kinds of backgrounds. It was really meant to be an integrated community, and it has benefited from a lot of public involvement and will continue to benefit from a lot of public involvement.”
Famous Toastery was turned into a Franchise in 2013 and has two other branches in Virginia, according to
