Dear Friends,
All of us have experienced the painful effects of higher energy prices and record inflation just about
everywhere we look. We know this is hard for you, and you’re anxious about what winter will bring. We want you to know that we’re doing everything in our power to ease the burden on your household budget.
Heating oil prices decreased by more than a dollar this summer after spiking in late spring, but then they skyrocketed again when OPEC slashed production in early October. No one can say for sure where they will go from here. But if history is a guide with energy prices, what goes up will come down. The question is when. No one will be happier than all of us here when prices finally return to normal levels. If you have questions or concerns about your upcoming fuel bills, please get in touch with us as soon as possible.
We are more than willing to work out a solution and help you navigate this winter with a little less worry. We’ve managed this business through tough stretches before. We have an exceptional team, excellent relationships with suppliers, and a phenomenal customer base. We will get through this together!
Warmly,
Raymond R. Shaffer, General Manager
