ITS A SAD DAY

I just received the news. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:  Our favorite LFS is making some changes. A Place For Pets.

Most of you know Kevin at APFP, but I am sure not many of you know his partner Sean. Well, Kevin is walking away, Sean bought him out. What does this mean for the store? I have no idea. So, for those of you that know Kevin really well, shoot on over to APFP and wish him well. This Wednesday is his last day there. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

True that. When ever I talk to Sean he refers me to Kevin for answers. I hope whatever change he going through is a positive one.

Re: ITS A SAD DAY

no really im in total agreement.. where on earth am i going to find someone who loved africans as much as kevin did.. he is seriously the ONLY reason i truly got into fish keeping. before visiting apfp i was a total novice. after a few sessions in apfp (one hour or longer visits) i finally got pushed in the right direction. this was also the only store i ever went to. shoreline is much to far from tacoma for a possibility at fish. (which is again hard because i want africans and its a dying breed) he will be sorely missed however i hope he has a bright future and considers opening his own store.

Re: ITS A SAD DAY

I will keep my discus and rams and mbuna, but think I will sell off the rest. Kevin is an all-star at fresh water. I don't think Sean will make it without Kevin, sad to say. I think in 3 years, I've only seen Sean there twice, and looked like he was in a bad mood each time. Might be another "Sierra" scenerio.......IDK

Pet Pourri, is where I forged my passion for fish keeping (RIP). Kevin, we spoke for at lest 20 min about 1 fish many years ago and she happened to be my 1st true love (Crenicichla lenticulata ). And at last after many months of searching he found a single female dwarf pike regani hiding in an odd tank just for me *sniffle....

call me crazy, but it seems theres more to the story that's being left unsaid
Why it happened is not for me to say, or for any of us to really concern ourselves with.  The only thing needed to be said is, Kevin is gone and hopefully Sean can keep the same type of business moving forward.
