You never know what is important to a customer.
Saturday a husband and wife came to the store and purchased a new Tempur-Pedic king-sized sleep set. They were excited about their new mattress and foundation.
On the way out, they stopped by the front desk to tell me how much they appreciated Gallery Furniture donating all the furniture and Tempur-Pedic mattresses to the Fischer House in Houston.
The Fischer House is a place for military families to stay while a loved one is in the hospital. The local Fischer House is next to the Michael DeBakey VA Hospital in the Texas Medical Center.
I asked the couple how they know about the great work of the Fischer House. She said that when they were first married her husband was in the military and he was diagnosed with cancer.
She said "For the first year of our marriage, while he was receiving treatments at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, I lived in the Fischer House next to Walter Reed. The Fischer House saved my life."
Gallery Furniture is a proud contributor to our community, and efforts like the Fischer House, because touching hearts and helping people is what life is all about.
