OUR ANGELS

This page is dedicated to people who have come and gone; customers who became more like friends and family. This page is for them, and for you. If you don't see one of your loved ones on our wall of Angels, please let us know.

River

Shortly after her 3rd birthday in June 2024, River was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer: stage 3 B-Cell lymphoma that was mutation negative. She underwent chemotherapy and held on for several months, but eventually lost her battle in November 2024.

We appreciate all of your messages of support, and extremely generous donations during her treatment. We will miss our fluffy official greeter

Margaret

Miss Margaret was our oldest supporter, hands down. She passed at the amazing age of 103. We loved Margaret's visits. The most she ever got was her lavender incense or her Chaka mood mat - but she supported us with such intent. Lucky to have spent our last Thanksgiving and Christmas with her. We will miss you Margaret.

Dorothy

Miss Dorothy is a daily visit I miss often. She would come by on Britts lunch break so she could see "both her girls". Every time we had some new gear, Dorothy would be the first one there to buy one. Her love for the shop grew into a deep love of her, and her family. I play the videos we took in the shop and recall our conversations often. We look at the moon and think of you Miss Dorothy.. I will forever miss your hugs

Elon

 Elon was a beautiful boy with the most gorgeous blue eyes ! His smile and his positivity were two of the things we loved about Elon. He reached out during his battle with cancer, and it meant a lot to us that he was willing to let us help as much as we could. I often replay his voice message on my phone; such gratitude and love, from such a young man during such a hard time. You were a warrior Elon, I promise to never forget those beautiful blue eyes.

Uncle Pat

Pat wasn't really our Uncle, but that's what it felt like. Since we opened, "Uncle Pat" had been visiting and giving his opinion on things. Always meaning well, Pat would often say things like, "well you should do it like this" or "try it this way". We miss Pat bringing us his hand carved wood, or his hand made spinning wheel. We miss you Uncle Pat.

Kim

This is my lady right here. My second mother. Aunt Kim played a huge role in who I am and how I live my life. Her love of animals and the need to protect children is deeply engraved in me. You'll often see us raising money or donating towards these causes for this exact reason. She helped so much with the opening of Rip Tide. Late nights were made better by her home made dinners she would bring into the shop, her often daily visits just to say hello. I miss this woman with every day that passes, I hope to make you proud aunt Kim

Dylan

We loved seeing Dylan's face come through our door! Such a handsome young man, always positive and in a great mood. Always so polite. We miss him, and wish we could see his beautiful smile walking through our doors again. Rest Easy Dylan.

Lou

Lewis joined the team when Brittany came along in 2017. Lewis was the most recognized of the shop dogs, as he spent nearly every day with us at the old shop too. He crossed the Rainbow Bridge in March 2024 and will be missed by our family, staff, and customers!

Grampy Bob

I'd like to think I got my "hustle" from my Gramps, a man who served time for simple things like cannabis and glass pipes; my grampy instilled a hustle in me that won't die until I do. Often his friends will say I remind them of him, always "wheelin & dealin" and ready to make a sale. While he did what I do from his kitchen table, I hope I make my Gramp proud - doin what he did, *legally*. Hope to make you proud Gramps, watch out for mum for me

Others we do not have photos of but would like to acknowledge. 

Neighbor Ellen, Craig Sullivan, Justin Foster, Danny Beeton 

Alissa Clark: While Alissa was obviously too young to be a customer, she has touched our lives greatly. A local 13 year old, who's life ended too soon. We pledged to help Ailssas family get a headstone for this beautiful soul. While we never got the chance to know you, we certainly wish we had
