The Corriveaus also thanked staff members both past and present, as well as the communities of Aroostook County and beyond.
All customers with gift certificates can redeem them prior to September 30, which is the scheduled closing date.
"Sad news in Caribou this morning. Reno’s Family Restaurant has supported the Caribou Fire Department for years always willing to provide us with large pizza orders when we had large fire incidents or trainings at a moment’s notice!" Caribou Professional Firefighters IAFF Local 5191 wrote on its Facebook page in response to the news.
The restaurant is most popular for its pizza, but it also serves sandwiches, entrees, and breakfast too. The restaurant's website says it "has been preparing American and Italian food for Aroostook County residents since 1965. We have built a reputation of serving home style cooked meals, served in a relaxed atmosphere."
