The Founder - L.D. Agee

L. D. AGEE NOW AND THEN  L.D. remembers the hard work.  For example, at the start of the Jr. Pro Football program people lined up outside his store to get their equipment.  He kept the store open and worked until 10:30PM making sure those kids could have what they needed to be part of the teams.  The store only closed when they ran out of supplies.  That’s when he got on the phone and located more equipment. L.D. managed to sleep between midnight and 2am and then he got up and drove to Knoxville to pick up the equipment needed for the rest of the kids. He loaded his vehicle and drove back to open the store at 10am and work another full day.

Back then bats were $3.95 each versus the $350 today and the only shoes available were the Converse for $6.95.

Today Agee's proudly serves a second generation of customers as some of the early customers are now parents bringing their kids in for supplies.

Everyone lost a great person when L, D. passed away.  He was truly a pillar of our community. He always was ready to help schools and teams as well as parents and children. He will be truly missed by us all. We will be thinking of his family and loved ones in this time of sorrow.

"He established a long-standing, honest tradition there," he said. "He always gave us deals that could fit our meager budgets back then. It was quality equipment at a very fair price, and it's just the place to go for Rutherford County coaches."

This tradition is exactly what the staff at Agee's wants to carry forward.
"We want people to realize that we're staying here, and we're committed to our customers and to the community," Sudberry said. "We are going run this store exactly as he wanted us to — with a big heart and a lot of love."
