ANNOUNCEMENT! Several years ago, Ron and I saw the movie, “Bucket List”. The message to us from this movie was profound. It illustrated the value of getting all of one's "wantado's" done in this lifetime. Since my lease on the building will expire at the end of May, we have decided to retire from the sewing machine sales business in order to pursue our bucket list. Doing maintenance on your Viking has been of major concern to us. Since Ron is a certified technician, Viking will still allow us to order parts as needed. Contact either Ellen or DJ to make arrangements for drop-off. |
