Thanks and regrets, but no variety store

To our friends in the Grand Coulee Dam area:

As many of you know, we have been trying since November to find a way to open a variety store in your area. During prior visits we’ve made to our daughter, Launi Ritter, we had seen a thriving variety store in Grand Coulee that served many of your needs and was a fun place to shop. When we heard that it was closing last fall, we knew it was a sad thing...
