Marvin Benskin, owner and operator of Bob's Appliance Center, located at 113 West Promenade Street, has announced his retirement and will be closing the business on December 23, 2022. The closing will mark the end of a two-generation family-owned appliance store.
The business was originally owned and operated by Marvin's in-laws, Bob and Betty Rivers, was established in 1977. Marvin started working full-time for the business in 1981. Upon Bob's retirement in 2001, Marvin and his wife, Carol. bought the business, maintaining the original business name.
Throughout the years, their sons, Beau and Garrett, along with other family members have been employed in the business.
Bob's Appliance Center provided major household appliances with "service after the sale" to Mexico and surrounding communities.
Marvin and Carol would like to express their appreciation to all their customers who have patronized the business over these past 45 years.
