This is one of the hardest posts I’ve had to make and one I was hoping to avoid. We’ve had a good run and we’ve put a lot of work into our little store, but we are officially closing Corner Post.
For the past almost two years, we have been blessed to serve Symsonia and the surrounding areas. We have poured our hearts into our food, rejuvenated the little building that was in need of some love, and made it a family endeavor to make our business work. At the end of the day, there are far too many factors stacked against us for it to remain logical to continue. From issues with product availability, soaring food costs, COVID hurdles in the very beginning, and the hardship finding people who want to work…we’ve seen our share of complications. Add in a pregnancy, a broken leg, orthopedic surgery, c-section recovery, and raising kids all in that timeframe and it has certainly been a whirlwind. In the words of Kenny Rogers, you have to “know when to fold ‘em” and unfortunately we are there.
I’m so very grateful for the time that we’ve spent in Symsonia. We have met a lot of fine folks and I have no doubt that I’ve developed some friendships that will stay with me. For those of you who supported us along the way, thank you from the bottom of my heart. For those of you who stopped in just to chat or visit with our kids, I appreciate each of those conversations. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed every day they were there and every single person who took the time to entertain their outgoing personalities!
We will pray for all of you and this community. Thank you again for welcoming us and we pray that the next people in this building love this town and you all as much as we do! ❤️💔
