goodbye letter from claudette

It is with deep sadness that I will be closing my store on December 15th. During the last nineteen years I have watched your children grow and shared your triumphs in raising a family. This has truly been a wonderful time in my life and has given me many precious memories of each of you. Your joys have been my joys. You have given me a huge extended family and we have had many laughs over my being the "bra queen".

Many of you have heard of my husband's passing in July, my efforts to try to keep his business concerns intact and running - and now my own health concerns - which has led me to re-evaluate, to smell the roses and to focus on taking care of myself. As a result, I have decided to relocate to Davis to be near my daughter and my precious grandchildren Ella, Christopher, and Patrick.

As with all of us, life changes and we go with the flow - not always what we want the most, but eventually what is best. I have tried to sell my business, but with the way the economy is today and the shift to internet sales I have not been successful. As a result, my only feasible option is to buy out my remaining lease term and allow the landlord to find a suitable replacement tenant.

I have been a proud member of the Rockridge community for many years and thank each and every customer for supporting my store and making me a part of your family. Please stop by in the next few months so we may say goodbye and so you can take advantage of our closing sale. There are lots of beautiful things for the holidays and of course we will still be fitting shoes for your children. We will be packing boxes on the 16th with the remaining merchandise to be distributed to the needy in our community. Let me know if you have an organization that we may have forgotten to include. I want to make Christmas special for as many as possible.

-Claudette von Rusten
