Doing some good
Local adult novelty store Sunshyne Video (not safe for work, for those who need to be told that) made the local news:
A woman who has been ordered out of her home after living there for months without water or electricity received help from an unlikely source Sunday.
Margie Hamby was told by Maryville officials to move out two years ago because her house had been declared unlivable for safety reasons and because of her overabundance of belongings.
Determined to stay put, Hamby refused city and court orders, claiming she wasn’t able to do it alone.
Sunday she got help from an unlikely source.
It’s not everyday employees of an adult bookstore and members of local churches come together for the greater good. But Sunday everyone worked together to help get 20 years worth of clothing and clutter out of Hamby’s home.
“We help where we get a chance to let people know that there’s really not much to the stereotype of adult bookstore or adult stores,” says David Anderson, the owner of Sunshyne Video.
He says he and his employees heard the call for volunteers and decided to lend a hand.
“It doesn’t matter if you’re a member of an adult video store or a church if someone needs help the American thing to do is be there,” says Anderson.
