A Letter of Thanks To: Stacey Hupp

Stacey Ann, My work wife, sister from another mother, and closest friend,

Thank you for 25 incredible years of service to Good Sports—and to my family.

Knowing and working alongside you for this long has been an unforgettable journey, filled with highs, lows, and everything in between.

Together, we’ve experienced life in all its phases: from being single, to creating our own beautiful families, witnessing the births of our children (Rachel and I have Jacob, Cameron and Madeline; You and Rob have sweet Penelope), and watching them grow.
We’ve grown older (and grumbled about it), made endless memories, and shared moments that have solidified you as a part of our family.

Marscha, Tommy, and I are deeply grateful—not just for the exceptional work you’ve done for our business, but for the amazing person you are. The Mensch.

From selling in-store and building lifelong client friendships, to traveling with us to buying shows as our buyer, your contributions have been invaluable.

Your keen eye for fashion and passion for the outdoors have elevated our store’s offerings in ways we couldn’t have achieved without you. Simply put: we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you.

Personally, I’ve been blessed to stand beside your fire. Your humor, our outside and inside jokes—too many to count—have added joy and connection that words can barely capture. “Nufsaid.” We’re on the level.

I love you and your family and wish you all the health, prosperity, and adventures the future holds.

I know this isn’t goodbye; we’ll see and talk to each other again soon.

Thank you, dearest friend. (Tears now…)

Most Sincerely,

Jordan Lauterstein
