My wife and I own and operate George Simons and Son Jewelers in Ludlow, MA (since 1981), founded in 1940 by my dad (George). Check out our web site www.GeorgeSimonsAndSon.com

2 years working for Landry & Lyons Real Estate in Wilbraham, MA--Licensed Broker, while running the jewelry business--just a bit too much to deal with all at once.

Children all grown up and out of the nest and doing well. Enjoying my work and the many clients we meet on a daily basis.

I've been blessed--Great parents (both passed), great wife, great children, love my work.....

Best memories of Classical High revolve around Madrigal and Carousel. Still singing Wilbraham Choral Society. Also sing with Shave and a Haircut--Barbershop Quartet--Great fun!

With Greek parents, my directions were always--classes done, come home.
