Hello there! Today was not a difficult day..I think everyone thought I would be crying all day, but nope! The longer you know me, the more you will realize I am a trooper in the midst of tough times. It was a busy day and the only tears came when I had to leave the shop tonight and Ed and I looked at each other and kissed and hugged, as I left for Bible study and he remained to close down the shop. It has been a special place for both of us. Many to love and care for, many memories through the years, times of joy and sorrow, times of wonderful people coming to grow their faith in the Lord, times of frustration and creativity and growing friendships............it all has been wonderful. I can never say thank you enough to the literally Thousands of dear ones who have come through the doors of first, A Gift From the Heart, and now, through the doors of Memories From the Heart. It is no longer ours, but now is transfering to dear friends Maggie and Greg, who will allow us to continue to serve you through the doors to a new adventure in Their very own shop at the Ben Franklin Craft store, next week. We are so blessed, to have the opportunity to continue sharing with all of you in a new venture, but not to have the full responsibility. It is a gift from God to us, and to Maggie and Greg to be meeting and caring about all of you. They will love you too.............give them a chance. Be just as loyal to them as you have to us. This is so special......to have this small town caring. We are proud to be a part of it and we want so much for you to come along with us.

You are loved..............thank you. Remember, we are always here from you and I will continue to post on here and on Facebook. Not quittin' yet friends! Hugs to each one..........Linda and Ed
