Summary
After a devastating flood tore through Kerrville’s historic Gibson’s Discount Center—destroying shelves, inventory, and air conditioning—the beloved store, one of only two Gibson’s left in the nation, is finally back open. General Manager Doug Hetzler led a months-long recovery effort, choosing to forgo federal recovery grants so other local businesses could benefit. Customers are thrilled to return to this community staple, as the team finishes upgrades like automated doors and prepares to reopen with a simple plea: come spend a few bucks to keep the doors swinging. It’s a hopeful sign that Kerrville is healing—one shopping trip at a time. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
