The Glens Falls Chronicle caught up with Pizza Hut manager, Recco Clark. His sentiments were the thoughts of many in the community. He said that it was "sort of sad" and that he had been at this location since it opened in May of 1998. He said that he watched a lot of kids come in and then work for him. He thought this Pizza Hut would be the one he would retire in. Clark will be a floating manager for the Fort Edward and Queensbury locations.
