Valley Sea Foods, a family-owned fresh seafood market, takeout business and wholesaler at 188 N. Washington St., is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year.
Rob Metzger, 38, who owns the business with his 72-year-old father Bob Metzger, said Valley Sea Foods has thrived over the last 75 years because they do a âlittle bit of everything.â
âIf itâs slow for restaurants, itâs busy out front,â he said. âSomething is always busy while other places might just focus on one thing.â

Jim Whitwer spent last Tuesday at the Cox ER. He had some food lodged in his throat and could not get it either up or down. The doctor scoped his throat, found the particle and pushed it on down and Jim is now enjoying his meals once again. It was quite a frightening ordeal.
Pray for the Lewis Rader family as Lewis lost his sister, Jo Simmons, this past week. Services were Friday in Seymour. Also pray for comfort for the Caffey family who lost Jeanette Jamison last week.Â
