You have fought so long, ans so hard, and given so much of yourself to the antique & vintage industry in the Northwest. . . it is just so unfair that circumstances beyound your control are ending it all. Believe me, I know how that feels!
What I WILL say is that we never know where a road is going to lead.
I know you have a psssion for antiques, for history, and for the dealers who make up our local circuit. What I nor you can't see yet is that this road will certainly bring you an opprotunity for something completely different in the future, another way to be involved with something you are so knowledgeable and passionate about. People like you do not fade into the sunset, Dennis! You have too much to share, to say, to bring to life. Your writing is so engaging and educational - perhaps that is something you can pursue? You could even write a fiction book based on the intricate and dark inner workings of the Northwest antique industry!!! Whatever you do, I know you will always exhibit the shining and fun-loving spirit you always have (even if this battle with the city has knocked the wind out of you right now). You will rise like the Phoenix you describe above. Thanki you, Dennis, brom both Bob and I, for the opporutinities that you gave to us and RETREAT to be part of the Sand Point Antique & Vintage Market's venerable history. We are so proud to have been able to participate, to get to know the other dealers, and you. It was an invaluable step in our growth of our business and our brand image to have been part of it, and we thank you you for that. I know I speak for the entire local industry when I say that you are a treasured part of our success and our history, and we owe you a debt of tratitude for all that you have done. Many blessing to you and Anita, as you move forward to a new phase in life. I wish you both happyness, peach, and success in whatever you do next... Deb
Comments on closing Sand Point
Dennis and Anita, Just a note to remind you that, YOU two are the show producers that allowed so many venders to be successful, YOU two gave it your all! YOU set the bar high and opened up a new era of Antique Shows, YOU always created a great show !! YOU should be proud!! And many, many owe you a big thanks... No, that doesn't put $$ in your pocket, but you, my friends, will go down in "infamy" !! Janet
Well that is sad unfair and typical. What about Lake City community center? Or some other place in Magnuson. Or a petition or letters to the paper? Jamie
I wish you much success in you next venture. Sand Point was a great venue. Thanks Dennis and Anita. Dennis
