So this guy came to NY five decades ago and opened a restaurant and raised three sons but still can’t speak any English. Yea right!
He's obviously just.....razy

Probably figured Spanish would help him more than English. It’s NY. He is probably right.
It's very common. There are two Chinese restaurants in my area owned by elderly Chinese but run by their American raised children. The elders oversee the business but are only able to communicate via broken english.
You'd be surprised at the numbers of first generation immigrants who came to work in the auto plants here in Detroit back in the '40's and 50's and 60's who still couldn't speak fluent English when it came time to retire........
So don't be so free to judge this guy or anyone else for that matter, simply on your perception on how they should be able to communicate.......Especially after being a contributing member of our society........
