Store Owner Caters To One Special Customer
When The Video Stop owner David Kraning shut down his store that was the only one left in town after 30 years of business, he knew he had to do something for a customer whose daily routine meant visiting his shop daily.
That customer is Christina Cavanaugh and she has rented a movie from the store every day for the past 20 years. Christina has Down Syndrome and keeping her in a routine helps her feel happy, even if it means watching the same movies over and over. David knew that would have a huge effect on Christina.
So since he also owns the convenience store next to the video shop, he created a special nook called “Christina’s Corner” where he set up shelves to display DVDs, exactly like Christina was used to seeing. Now, she comes in around the same time every day and selects her choice for the evening.
