I was nudged by a viewer about this story for a year. I’m so glad he did.

Today I got to meet Mr. Head, who at 99 years of age has been running Head’s Hardware for 80 years. It’s an old school style hardware store and fence supply company. You can even get a full-service tank of gas there.

His son is his business partner and his grandkids and great grandkids help him around the store.

These are the types of stories we love to tell on TCR. Thanks to David Sine aka “Coach” for the tip!
