It is with mixed emotions that after 14 years as owners of Eastview IGA, Anthony and Tara Kearney are retiring this Saturday, May 2nd. We would like to thank all of our customers for their support over the years and especially thank you all for your support of the community through our fundraising efforts, most specifically the Special Olympics, the Red Deer Foodbank and the local Breakfast Program fundraisers. Despite our small size of a store, through your kindness, most years we have been the top fundraiser in Central Alberta and some years we have been amongst the top fundraisers in the nation. We would also like to thank our staff for their efforts in maintaining the store's reputation of being a small-town store in the middle of the city, always putting the customer first. As for the future of your neighbourhood IGA, we are leaving it in the capable hands of the same long-time staff you've come to know and love plus a new Store Manager, Bernita VanSchothorst.
Thank you,
Anthony Kearney
Eastview IGA
