I was in to pick up a gizmo related to my car on February 14 and Mimi told me they were closing effective immediately. Yes, family investment following Al's death last year. She was very sad about it, was still working on another type of sale, and worried about all the employees. She also mentioned updates would be posted on the FB page. I've been going there since 1998 or so and can't imagine going anywhere else; I think I'd follow Michael wherever he goes.
