A Love Story, New Beginning & Healing

There is always a story and I love learning all about it.

Our next Estate Sale coming up January 13th and 14th has 3 separate stories, each as unique as the families themselves. As we all enjoy whys, hows, and who's of history, I assume that is why we love vintage and antiques so much.

Each of the 3 families we are hosting in our last sale at SOLD IN 168, share a unique story...

Love Lost, Love Found

When our client(lets call him Leo) lost his wife after many, many years and 3 wonderful daughters, he did not expect to find another love. Leo cared for is ailing wife for a number of years and when she passed, was heart broken and lonely.

As he did with his wife, Leo would walk in his very large neighborhood although now alone. One day during his walk he met a woman(lets call her Alice) and they began to see each other walking more frequently.

Alice and Leo lived less than a block from one another, yet over the past few years, had never met.

In the true sense of blessings, Leo and Alice fell in love.

It was at my first meeting with both of them that Leo and Alice shared their love story and Leo shared the love he had and still has for his first beloved wife. They were now combining homes and were needing to downsize. They contracted with us and we have been very honored to be part of their story.

From Texas To Alaska

At one of my previous sales I met a fun and vivacious young woman. She was interested in how my on-site sales worked and how it might help her with a big decision. With a leap of faith she was moving to Alaska to pursue a passion she shared with friends.

Her move required her to clean-out years of collected items and take only the basics. As she and her family brought her belongings in this week, I had fun getting to visit with her, her Dad and friend.

Hard To Let Go

I am meeting next week with a lady I spoke with on the phone yesterday. We chatted about options and placing some of her Fathers antique furniture in our next sale may be her best option. It is clear she is still mourning deeply for her Dad and needs a listening ear. If she needs our help I will give you more information regarding her options.

The above stories are what makes each and every sale unique. It is also the compassionate side of our nature to need the stories and connect with the items we purchase.

Hope to see you at our next sale.
