HELIODOR WAS NAMED in honor of the sun, of which there’s not a huge amount in Iowa at this time of year. That didn’t stop Tony Jackson, the sales manager at Dubuque’s Doland Jewelers from quickly identifying February’s mystery stone. Well done, Tony, and all our Honorable Mentions who also got the correct answer. Keep an eye on this space. More light and warmth in the form of a new Gem Quiz will be coming soon.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
