While we await Dallas Fort Worth International Airport’s new Terminal F in 2027, we’ll stop by Terminal E and check out the latest location for Fort Worth’s Brewed. The boutique coffee shop is expected to open next year at the terminal, following the restaurant that opened in 2019 in Terminal D. Unlike the first airport location that offers a full-service restaurant and specializes in all-day brunch, the Terminal E version of Brewed will offer a curated coffee experience.

Her husband, Kent Perkins, made the announcement on Facebook. Buzzi was in hospice care for several years with Alzheimer’s disease, according to the post. The diminutive Buzzi won fame on NBC’s “Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In,” a variety program that ran from 1967 to 1973.
