Thanks to Candice Farley, the specialty manager at the East Home Depot store at Providence Square, for the information and photos about Chuck Heegn.
He’s an associate who was part of the store’s opening 22 years ago (it’s officially called the Merchant’s Walk store these days), and on Thursday he retired with a fond farewell from his co-workers.
Here’s more she shared about him, and the sendoff:
“Chuck Heegn is a proud U.S. Veteran, cancer survivor and recently celebrated his 22nd anniversary with the Merchant’s Walk Home Depot. He said he enjoyed seeing the children of the community come in for the kids workshop and over the years, have them bring in their children to attend the monthly workshop. Our store will miss him dearly and we wish him the best!”
