Jack King has operated the Crestline Shell station for the past 36 years.
The Cresline Shell is now here to stay.
A group of investors purchased the station's property on Aug. 20 and will lease it back to Jack King, according to King. King has run the store at 80 Church Street for the past 36 years.
The previous property owner, McPherson Oil Products, sent King legal notification on May 29 stating that he must purchase the property by Sept. 3 in order to remain in business, but he said he was not in a financial situation to buy the property.
“Once they heard there was a chance of losing the property, they got together and came to me,” King said of the investors.
