Well deserved acknowledgment. 🤍

Sandra Cassibry, thanks for always lending a helping hand, spending the long nights decorating for Christmas & just “flipping” the store. I could not have survived without you! I am so grateful for your expertise at all the markets and helping me choose beautiful merchandise to bring home to Stone County! You are the best friend anyone could wish for.
