AKRON, Ohio - An Akron bridal shop, unable to rebound from the stigma created by an Ebola scare, is closing its doors in May after 30 years in business.
In a letter to customers, Anna Younker, owner of Coming Attractions Bridal and Formal, said the recent events were devastating to her business.
"Despite our best efforts, we simply have been unable to recover," the letter reads.
During an interview at the store, Younker indicated she has lost more than $100,000 since Amber Vinson, a Dallas nurse, tested positive for the Ebola virus a few days after she visited the store to plan for her upcoming wedding.
"I wish that now she knew better not to travel. The impact its had on me is huge," Younker said. "Never in a million years did I expect something like this to cause our business to have to close."
Younker, who has operated the business for two decades, has lost many customers because of the negative perception of the store. She said others continue to refer to it as the "Ebola store" and fear coming inside the building on Tallmadge Avenue to shop for gowns.
"It's very upsetting because there's nothing I can do."
Vinson, a graduate of Firestone High School, was treated for the virus in a Texas hospital and has recovered.
Last November, Younker was insulted after she received a letter from a Dallas attorney requesting a refund on behalf of Vinson's bridesmaids.
Younker ignored the request and said the bridesmaids apparently took their business elsewhere because they called to ask for their measurements.
"If she can't support us, what kind of message are you sending to everybody else? Maybe she didn't want to be associated with the "Ebola store" either," Younker said.
Four other employees of the store will lose their jobs when the store closes, including Kayla Litz, a 33-year-old associate.
Litz is pregnant and dealt with a nerve-racking 21-day forced quarantine because she came into direct contact with Vinson.
"I was in my first trimester of pregnancy at that point and I was sick-- nausea, vomiting and tired-- which are some symptoms of Ebola," Litz said.
Litz was monitored daily by the health department and didn't test positive for the virus.
She's sad the business is closing, but understands the owner's decision.
"The repercussions were endless for her financially," Litz said.
Younker said all orders received through January 31 will be finished and delivered.
She said concerned customers should call the store or leave a message on Coming Attraction's Facebook page.
The store is currently liquidating dresses and offering 50 to 80 percent off the gowns until the closure in May.
