Treasure Chest re-opens with new owners – same tradition of excellent service

The community suffered a great loss when Treasure Chest owner Tom Lea died suddenly last November, but nephews Chris and Jody Lea, along with partner Elliott Simmons, are continuing the long-time tradition of family ownership and commitment to community service. A special open house was held Saturday, February 4, to showcase the new showroom and introduce the Lea and Simmons Treasure Chest. The official Ribbon Cutting was held Monday, February 6, 2012, with a huge crowd of supporters gathering to congratulate the new owners.
