PARENTS LEGACY

Welcome To A Parents Legacy

This site, as well as my entire ebay business is dedicated to my parents, to whom I owe so much. Without them I would have no business. They left me with the determination to overcome lifes challenges despite being born with a severe case of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. They also left me my entire ebay product supply. Curious yet? Read on then.

Parents Legacy Story

My parents were married in 1955 and shortly after that my older brother was born. I was born in 1962 and it was around this time as a couple in their early 30s they opened a family bakery, which was quite successful though it meant 70 hour work weeks for both of them. Hard work was not something they were never afraid of. We were never rich, but we never wanted for much either. A few years after my younger brother’s birth in 1970 they had to sell the bakery because of health reasons with Dad. It was then they started a garage sale / used furniture business. This expanded into a used skate business which they kept going right up until my Dad passed away in 2001 (my mom died in 1997.) When my Dad died I know he wished he could have left more for his 3 sons after a lifetime of work. He was also worried about me and my ability to keep the house he left me. What he didn’t realize was that he and Mom left me more than I could have asked for. It was because of their encouragement I learned to cultivate my intelligence and creativity to compensate for my physical limitations. They also left me a golden opportunity. Along with the house, from their years in the garage sale / used furniture business, came two garages and a tractor trailer packed full of REALLY COOL STUFF. That is when I got the ebay idea. They left me enough stuff to keep me busy until I turn 175. Exploring this treasure trove item by item is a marvelous experience. Everyday is different. Its kind of like digging for buried treasures. In addition I get a special satisfaction when I make a sale, knowing the item sold has found a home where it will be displayed and appreciated. The whole experience has been a blast and I am determined to make it successful in my parents honor. SO MOM AND DAD THANK YOU!

HAPPY 2004 EVERYONE
