A retirement framed by 37 years of serving customers LISA QUEEN lqueen@insidetoronto.com When Alan Yu and his wife Lynette close the doors on their North York framing and art gallery for the last time Tuesday, they will be saying goodbye to customers who have become like family over the last 37 years. “It’s going to be sad because I got used to every day coming to work. I will miss all the people. People bring me coffee (as I work), they are talking here about their family,” Yu said. He is thrilled that children
who used to come to the store with their parents years ago now “bring their small, little ones to meet me, just like family. That makes me happy because I have done something good.” Clasi Frames opened its doors in July 1977, making it the first tenant in the Sheppard Centre at the northeast corner of Sheppard Avenue and Yonge Street, Yu said. Yu, 65, admits owning a framing store and art gallery is not the life he pictured for himself when he came from Hong Kong four decades ago. >>>‘I’, page 8
