So much for another year, as we come to it's end today. This evening, just so happens to be my Wife of almost 40 years Birthday. Yes, She is one of those New Years Eve birthday kids you hear about as the "First Born" at or after midnight.Now if that were not blessing enough, I have been blessed to be blessing to those in the greater East Central Indiana area now for some 20 years as a business person and we have enjoyed raising our children in Muncie, and called Indiana our transplanted home from 1980 through now.

One of the things we have tried to be, is what ECI residents have asked of us and be the best at that as we conceived it to be; and God has blessed us in many ways along the way. Now that I have had my cancer surgery and am recovering and Joyce her nerve surgery and is recovering; we had discussed the sale of the shop to a Veteran(s) who would want to take it form our home area and make it a working proposition somewhere else in the area.

We had decided that if the Shop did not sell by the end of the month (Today) as a going concern, we would in turn Liquidate what we had and simply keep the sewing operation for me to continue to puts around in. Both of us will from this time forward be considered disabled to the degree we would not be working to the same degree as in the past. Given the state of the economy and our health in general that it is time to pack it in and move on.

Between now and the end of January, I expect to have "Liquidated" or "restocked" to our many suppliers any and all we have handled in an Army Navy Surplus manner. I will as I stated above the sewing portion only and will do what I am able to do, to keep that viable and as you may remember from other posts, we custom design, sew and deliver hundereds of products. We will continue to do repairs and modifications to existing produts that others bring into us to have done.

I and Joyce would like to take this oppertunity to thank our many friends who have been our clients these many years; and wish thme a happy and safe New Year! May God bless you and yours; as you prepare for this New Year, and thank you for being a great community to be part of .
