RE: [GBW] Aiko's Remembrance

["M.R. Drabik" <mrdrabik@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!  Barb!  Aiko's is considered a midwest mecca for those of us who don't live in the Chicago area.  I was only at the store once, but ordered from them frequently.  I will miss the personalized, friendly service.  It feels like I'm losing a family member.  Take care.
