Why are they selling ... one might ask? Kids grow up and turn into young adults and life changes the main reason for this transition is these owners now find themselves in a different season of life that is much too busy with travel sports and keeping up with their teen's schedules. The Murray's live just 10 minutes down the road and will not be going anywhere and would love the opportunity to mentor and teach new owners their craft to help carry on and preserve their family legacy.
