RIP Art Apinian of Savas Shoe Repair

[ron_newman]

Art Apinian, who ran Savas Shoe Repair (in the little plaza between Starbucks and Orange Leaf), died on November 9. He was only 62 years old. I learned of his death today, when pbockelman posted it to Facebook.

The shop appears to still be open, but I do not know who is now doing the repairs there.

I'll miss him.
