Yesterday was the final day of our contest. Right before we were going to draw all the names (compiled the old-fashioned way, by writing down all the names and literally pulling them from a bag) and old friend of Cynthia’s walked in. Tom Hierlihy is no ordinary ghost from the past. His Uncle worked for the people who bought Marich’s Country Store in Bristol New Brunswick after it’s second-generation owners, Cynthia’s parents, retired. Tom’s uncle eventually took ownership of the business and re-named it Sally’s House of Gifts , named for his daughter. When Tom and his wife walked through the door, we knew the coincidence was too good to be true and, in honour of shared retail history, he agreed to pull the draw.
Congratulations to Megan Lee and MarkD1952 (trip advisor alias)! We look forward to seeing you and presenting your prize.
