This is not something that has happened overnight but has been a long time in coming. We have spent the last two and a half years doing our best to uphold and maybe even surpass the expectations that you expect from us. We believe we have succeeded. Alas, certain things that were put into motion years ago have come to realization. It is also a tough time for everyone here in The Valley and around the world. We fear that we will not be the last to lose their homes or businesses.

On a brighter note, John and I will remain here in The Valley. We still believe in the greatness that is here, from the people to the landscape. We look forward to watching The Valley grow and change. We are excited that maybe new commerce will come here with the right motivation.

John will continue to be cooking, and I will continue to bake, just in a new venue. We cannot wait to see all of you around. We will finally have the time to go to all the wonderful things here, such as the Arts Festival, Opera Festival and the Valley Players. This will give us an opportunity to finally meet so many people that we just have not had the time to meet yet.

Trae Greene and John Lumbra
