It was changing of the guard Saturday at the Ada Flea Market when Gus Guthrie (right) handed off the keys to the new owner, Dan McCrory of Rawson.
Gus, who opened the flea market 5 years ago, is retiring from the business but will continue to pastor St. Paul's United Church of Christ. On Friday, Dan retired from Ball Metal in Findlay after 38 years. He began ownership of the store the next day.
He and his wife, Cindy, said they will enjoy operating a store with ever-changing merchandise and repurposing the goods sold there, all at bargain prices.
Bluffton Hospital provides this feature on the importance of primary care providers (PCP). If you don't already have a PCP call the Blanchard Valley Medical Provider Physician Referral Line at 419-422.APPT (2778).
When you are not feeling well, it is important to contact your primary care provider (PCP) for guidance first.
This is the best place to receive care for common illnesses, minor injuries or routine wellness checks. Your PCP can be your partner in managing your health over a period of time, making chronic conditions less symptomatic.
