Glenn Lewis, a prominent jeweler in Oklahoma, has died at age 68.

Current Mayor Mark Hamm wrote on the city’s Facebook page that Lewis had a “deep love for the city.”

“City Council recently honored him with the ‘Key to the City,’ symbolizing the impact he had on the community,” he wrote. “Glenn had the key to our hearts. On behalf of the Moore City Council and Staff, our thoughts and prayers go out to the Lewis family during this difficult time.”

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
