Barkow president, will be announcing additional special offers throughout 2004. “This is one of the many ways we want to reward our loyal customers, and welcome new customers to the Barkow family,” he said. “We have been family-owned and operated for five generations, and could not have gotten this far without the continued loyalty of our customers.”
