General Info:

The Hat Shop is dedicated to the memory of our son Clay who died in 2008. Clay loved hats. He was a month from turning sixteen when he committed suicide. He was loved by many and we think of him and remember him everyday. What was wrong with Clay? We don't know. We only had a few months to deal with his mental health crisis which ended all too soon. The Hat Shop is dedicated to bringing awareness to the issues of depression and suicide in our youth today. But how do we do that? In a small way we are doing that just by being here. The shop has a small fan club consisting of my husband Larry (Clay's father), myself Jenny, (Clay's mother) and Mike and Venessa who are two of Clay's friends. So between the four of us we keep the doors open and pay the rent and if we make more than enough, we buy more hats and beads. We live in a small town so there is not much for young people to do. We have a kick-it place in the back where you can hang out, read or bead. We have quite a few books on subjects ranging from animal totems, afterlife and astrology and coping with grief and loss. We can play any music as loud as we can stand it because all the other business's are closed when we are open. So buy a hat and help us keep The Hat Shop open. Thanks for reading. With love and respect, Jenny
