Bakery Turned Car Park, Station Road, Early 1940s

I grew up in Upminster (from 1935) and there used to be a great old stone bakery on the left hand side, going up Station Road. I think the owners were called Abraham. It was taken over by the council and torn down for a car park, very sadly. I remember that Mr Abraham then drowned himself in a nearby gravel pit.  Does anyone else recall this sad event?
