Two Illinois hardware stores close their doors
Ace Hardware stores in Marion and Energy, Ill., closed their doors April 2 -- at least for the time being, according to a report in The Southern newspaper.
Joe Turley, who owns both stores, intends to sell the stores to a buyer from Columbia, Ill., the article said. Turley also owned an Ace store in Du Quoin, Ill., which shut down earlier this year.
The two Williamson County stores will remain stocked with inventory for the time being.
