I spoke with Mark today and he and Matt Whitesell have had a death in the family. Scott, who many of you know as the voice on the other end of the phone is deer hunting so he’s out of the picture.
The Whitesell’s have caused us all to have some pretty high expectations with how high they set the bar for such a small business. My word is not official of course but, go ahead and put your order in, just don’t expect it to ship as quickly as it normally does. Remember, family is first... |

Thanks Rob,
Blake and Kate are in the shop, as well as Taylor in the mornings. Just gonna delay things coming in a day or two at most. We are a small business so this isnt something we could have planned for, it was pretty sudden. Thanks Mark |

Thank you Rob and all of our extended 914 family. Dad will be missed for sure, but we know that he's in a better place now. I am a firm believer that things happen for a reason. At first I was bummed that I was not able to make the drive out to Red Rocks this year when we lost an employee at the foster care home. As it turns out I will be eternally grateful for the time that I got to spend with my dad caring for him.
You never know what life with throw at you. You just have to find the good. Thanks for all of your warm wishes and support. Matt Whitesell Attached thumbnail(s) |

I have been in that position and it was one of the hardest things ive ever had to experience. We are who we are mostly because of those who raised us, loved us, cared for us, taught us, and there is a Legacy that you carry and pass on to others: caring and serving others- that comes from your parents. Again, our prayers are with you , Phil |
