Guy, Lar’s son, worked evenings in the store doing odd jobs and building picture frames.Lars and Guy would spend two generations building the ground works of the furniture store business in Otter Tail county. Passing on the foundation of the Olson legacy to Guy’s son Bob, and his wife Elaine. Together, Bob and Elaine took a heartfelt approach to growing and expanding a family business for another generation.Keith Olson and his wife Kim, the fourth generation, have held the reins as the furniture industry and the economy underwent many changes. Embracing the foundation of service, Keith is become renown as an ardent supporter of the community.
