With many empty coolers and bare shelves in the dairy, produce, meat department, bakery, and deli, shoppers asked the same question: If the store isn't closing, where is all the food?
"There was a time this store was on life support," said Pat Clarke, a community advocate. "I could tell you today right now it's damn near dead."
A rotten smell is noticeable after entering the store.

The state of the store is a shock, even to people like Clarke, who watched the store go through its ups and downs.
Clarke said: "30 days ago…hell, we looked like a grocery store again."

The City of Kansas City owns the Linwood Shopping Center, where Sun Fresh is located.
Community Builders KC is the nonprofit that operates the grocery store.
