Seventh Street merchants welcomed Cindy and Jaro, the new owners of Things & Stuff, to their close-knit Garden City family March 29. As the new owners of the store, Cindy and Jaro will carry on the popular gift shop's tradition of friendly and personalized service and a fine selection of items for all residents' needs.

For more than 30 years, former owners Linda and Elliott ran the store. They held a "meet and greet" to say goodbye to all their loyal customers, whom they consider to be more like friends, and give residents an opportunity to say hello to the store's new owners last Thursday afternoon.
