Great People Grow in Texarkana

Here’s to Texarkana native Gary Kusin!  …a business giant who offers ever more evidence that greatness grows in Texarkana USA!  

A seemingly indefatigable entrepreneur, Gary’s credits include launching and leading the high end cosmetic giant Laura Mercier, Game Stop (nee Babbage’s), FedEx Office from Kinkos -to name a top three, a record few can match.  Gary shared his businesses perspectives in Texarkana on September 10, reflecting on the impact and enduring legacy of his amazing parents, Mel and Barbara Kusin, Texarkana community leaders who were integral to this community’s fortunes for decades, including the beginnings of the Texarkana Regional Arts and Humanities Council.  Gary’s brother David Kusin affords extra testament to this family’s powerful legacy (both graduates and honored alums of Texas High School), one which continues into the next generation–in Gary’s entrepreneurial children.

Congratulations and sincerest thanks to Gary Kusin – and his family – for reminding us that GREATNESS grows in Texarkana!  Another superlative to celebrate!
