The Amherst Police Department is investigating a break-in and theft that occurred Aug. 1 at Amherst Memorial Studio on Jackson Street.

Alvin Miller, the company's head draftsman, learned of the break-in from his son, who arrived at the business and found that someone had forcibly entered the building.Miller said the business, nestled into a residential neighborhood, has been at the same location since it opened in 1930.

"Just the program itself was almost $3,000," Miller said."So right now, I've got a plotter machine that's only worthless as a paperweight right now until we get stuff geared up again. He said getting back the computer with the design program installed on it would save him a lot of time and stress. He's offering a $2,000 reward for its return."It's a shame. We've been here about 30 years, and we've known them forever," Kordeleski said."Everybody here knows everybody," Kordeleski said."That's the way it is.

"It picked up that there was something going on. It just saw changes in lighting- is all it was but nothing to catch any specifics," Kordeleski said.
