❤️ A Bittersweet Announcement ❤️
I’ve dreaded this post for a long time, but the time has finally come to share the news. Smiley’s has been sold.
This decision did not come easily or lightly. We put it off for a couple of years and turned down offers because Smiley’s has always meant so much to us. It’s been more than just a business — it’s been a part of our lives, our memories, and our community. But we feel that it’s time to close this chapter and move on to the next one.
We are thankful Tara and Darline will continue to serve all of the favorites of Smiley’s. 
We are going to deeply miss all of you who have supported us throughout the years. Your loyalty, friendships, conversations, and continued support have meant more to us than you will ever know. We are beyond grateful for every customer who walked through our doors and became a part of the Smiley’s family.
Walking away from something you’ve poured your heart into is never easy, but we know that every chapter has its season, and we are ready to see what the next one holds.
From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU! Thank you for supporting us, believing in us, and allowing us to be a part of your lives over the years. We will forever cherish the memories and friendships made along the way.
This isn’t goodbye to the memories — just the closing of a chapter we will always hold close to our hearts.
With love and gratitude,
Smiley & Liz ❤️
