Meet Fred Meijer

I don’t know about the rest of you but I find my weekly shopping at Meijer to be highly convenient. Down to the last pair of white socks without holes? Child grew an inch overnight and needs new footie pajamas? Car need an oil change? No problem! Just add it to the grocery list. I am also a huge fan of the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park. In fact, my absolute favorite Christmas gift was a membership there.

Who do we have to thank for these two fabulous things? Fred Meijer! If you are interested in learning more about Mr. Meijer you can check out his new biography. And at the Main Library on Wednesday, March 25 at 7:00 pm you can listen to the authors discuss their experience writing the book and meet special guest Fred Meijer.

    There's a story in Thursday's Grand Rapids Press on the book. Fred Meijer is certainly a remarkable man! All kinds of people shared their stories about Mr. Meijer in the book. I'm looking forward to hearing the authors talk about the book and hearing some of these wonderful stories.
