The Ole Hitchin Post

10/04/2026

My sister, Joy, wrote the most perfect obituary for our extraordinary mom. I could not be more proud to be her daughter and I hope to love and serve others even a portion as well as she did. But it truly brings so much peace and joy to think about her being with her Savior. Our savior. Even those last 2 days when her body was here, her eyes never opened and we knew the time was coming...I would smile imagining her running into the arms of Jesus. And the reunion with others who have gone before her. I have liked the song "Homesick for Heaven" by Phil Wickham for a while, but now it means something different to me. I sat by mom Saturday morning and played that song. I cried so much. But then the last verse...

To see the ones I love, who've gone before
When death is a memory and tears are no more
To hear the angels praise, can you even imagine

I'll run as fast as I can into Your arms
'Cause I was created to be where You are
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven

I could close my eyes and imagine it. My mom running as fast as she could into His arms. Hearing the angels praising Him...I shook my head and smiled. What a beautiful reality.

No more fears or pain. No more confusion. I hate to be cheesy, but our loss is most certainly Heaven's gain.

I love you, mom. 💙

Hey everyone. This is Krissy. Just making what will be one of my last posts regarding The Ole Hitchin' Post. Unfortunately, I am selling the restaurant. Sometimes life really happens and you have to keep trusting the Author. That has been the theme of my chapter for 2026. Heading into this year, this was not on my radar. Not much about this year has been. But...God is good. And I know He has good plans.

Having TOHP has been one of the best parts of my life. I have loved this place so much. Even more, I have loved the people. Thank you to all who were supportive by being loyal customers, as well as those that have supported us by liking and sharing posts, giving us words of encouragement and for those that have prayed over our business and family countless times. Thank you to all who showed up with a smile or a hug. Who showed up when it was raining, or snowing, or even hotter than heck. You were not just customers to me or my kids...you were friends. And you are loved.

Thank you, sincerely, for some of the best days of my life. 💙🙏🏻🥺🙏🏻💙

Love,
Krissy

Due to family circumstances, we will not be opening this year. I already miss it and all of you.

If you are the praying type, we would greatly appreciate your continuing prayers.

It's always bittersweet to call an end to our summer season. But the time has come to do that for 2025. So Sunday November 2 will be that day for this year. We truly hope you'll have a chance to come out again before then so we can see and serve you and say, "Thank you!" one more time for your continued business, support and prayers and for the memories made this season.

This has been such a special season for us. We have been so thankful to be back. Thank you for sharing your time with us. Thank you for sharing your stories with us. We are so grateful to be a part of not just the Larwill community, but the OHP community. You are all amazing, appreciated and loved!

Our hours will remain the same for these last 2 weeks:

Thursdays 4 pm - 8 pm
Fridays 4 pm - 8 pm
Saturdays 11 am - 8 pm
Sundays 11 am - 8 pm

We are already looking forward to 2026 and have some really exciting things to share in the coming months!

Much love,
Krissy and the OHP family
