Oak Harbor’s favorite centenarian has owned and operated one of the island’s most popular businesses since 1967.

WOW! Customer Crystel Manzella did an amazing job painting our windows- she had a vision to tell Gene’s story, and it turned out amazing. My son and I helped a little, with the ship and planes. We can’t thank you enough Crystel! Thanks for making Gene’s birthday extra special!!
