This week we are honored to play a role in tribute events. One of our great blessings has been to meet and make new friends in the midst of our endeavors.
The Aqualand Ale House was once known by another name. It was much loved by the friends of Betty's Deli. We have heard time and again how wonderful Betty was, how kind and oh what a cook! Our deepest regret is that we did not know her. Those who did have only the fondest of memories. We have had the privilege of getting to know her "kids". The adults who gifted us by accepting our offer to purchase just a year and a half ago. This weekend Betty's family and friends will spend a little time with the place that brought her so much joy, and by default will spend a little time with us. We are humbled and we are honored.
Tomorrow night we are closing our doors for a private party- a first for us. For tomorrow night Bill and Sue will celebrate their life and it's milestones, realized together. A broad group of friends and family will come and raise a glass with them, to them and a next chapter of their life will begin. We are honored to humbly serve as hosts for this celebration.
Our dream from the beginning was that the Aqualand Ale House be first and foremost a place where friends would gather, where friends would sit awhile, chat a while, raise a glass and laugh together. We have seen strangers become friends and friends drawn closer on our dippy, sinky-seat bar stools.
And at the Aqualand Ale House, may we celebrate life and the living of it every day. May we revel in the joy of time, of friendship, of good food, good beer and laughter. We are honored each time we sense your enjoyment and we are humbled when you call us friend.
God Bless you Betty! Congratulations Bill and Sue!
