Loveland is losing it.  Penner’s Appliance is no more.   Harvey Penner started the business in 1969, and sold it four years ago.  I think it was about 1972 when I first purchased a washer and dryer from Harv.  Over the years, I have gone to him for stoves, refrigerator and a second washer and driver.

Harvey was not the cheapest.  The big boxes could beat him by a few bucks, but he was LOCAL.  He knew who his customers were, and called them by name. 

I talked to Harvey in the parking lot of the business today.  He still owns the building, and is trying to get it ready to be rented out. It can be used as one unit or divided into up to five separate businesses.  The nice thing is that it has parking spaces in front that are not on the street.

Thanks Harvey and family for your service to Loveland as a businessperson, civic leader and church member.   We all need to remember to support local businesses.

Call Harvey Penner at 667-9983 if you are interested in retail space downtown Loveland.
