Today is the final day! ๐ข
V**eRings began in 2015 by Bhanu Manney and Lt Dan and I took over in 2019 (I started running the back office in 2016.) From the beginning there were so many people wanting a safer alternative to ci******es. VaoeRings helped them make that switch. V**eRings has experienced a lot of love, laughter and great times. Our customers were always supportive and we had some of the best vender and v**e juice creators out there.
Through the hard times like FDA overreach, E-Vali and Covid, we persevered. We experienced the loss of 2 young men less than 2 years apart; Steven Gentrup โAdamโ in 2018 and and Curt Herrera in 2020. The way we as a team and our customers supported each other was amazing. These 2 young men had a big life in front of them and we know the will always be with us.
We also had some amazing vendors, distributors and creators who helped and made a difference through this journey. Thank you to the men & women who fought for our industry via GVA ( Georgia V**e Alliance) We appreciate your dedication.
To fellow store owners that were supportive of us and who I like to friends, thank you!
To loveโฆ Kennah and Grant Rhodes met as customers in our lounge area, began dating, fell in love and are now married. ๐ฅฐ
Because I became sick in the fall of 2019, and these illnesses just keep going, it was time to say goodbye.
Kyle will be working at Cloud 9 at Tuscan Heights. Go give him a visit there. He will be glad to see your faces. He will be at V**eRings today until 7pm
Finally, to all of the AMAZING employees Iโve had the pleasure to work with over the years, thank you!!! And thank you for the title of โBoss Ass Bitchโ ๐ฅฐ๐ Iโm feeling a bit overwhelmed at saying goodbye and not being able to be there. On our last day.
THANK YOU EVERYONE who made V**eRings a special place for everyone.
Forever grateful,
Kathi, Lt. Dan and Kyle
