River's Mouth is inexpensive and has cheerful, helpful staff

There isn’t another business in this town, bar none, that looks out for its citizenry the way River’s Mouth does. That is the most important thing I have to say, so I’ll repeat it, and hold that thought.

But first let us take a peek at this endearing little place on Earth that we call home. In Wrangell, as residents we fall into one of those two categories: buyers and/or sellers.

We are all in this together. We are all trying to survive in this day and age while inflation is eating us alive and the almighty dollar buys nothing.

Enter the solution: River’s Mouth to the rescue. In my own vernacular, I refer to River’s Mouth as The Happiness Store. Nowhere else in town will your dollar stretch so far.

Kelly Ellis saw a screaming need and filled it promptly and efficiently.

A bonus too for those who live more comfortably. You have a local destination for your used things and the satisfaction of knowing that they will be put to good use, not wasted, and that they will be appreciated.

At River’s Mouth you will find nice things, a room filled with sunlight, windows and brightness wonderfully organized, clean and neat and cheerful with a dedicated, hard-working staff delighted to serve you. And the best, I save until last: At prices you can afford. Way to go, Kelly!

Personally, I’d like to nominate you for grand marshal of our Fourth of July parade and best business with the chamber of commerce.

You and your staff deserve the recognition for a job well done.
