Here’s the Answer to June’s Gem Quiz

FROM THE DEPTHS of earth to deepest outer space, you’ve got to hand it to the world’s gems – they always have a good back story. And that was certainly the case with June’s mystery stone – Moldavite – the only tektite of gem quality (although, as one of our astute readers pointed out, Apache tears might have a claim to being on that list of extraterrestrial wonders). David Blitt, the owner of Troy Shoppe Jewellers in Calgary, AB, emerged from the pack to claim the top prize – a Gem Geek t-shirt. Congratulations to David – who, should you be wondering, was getting ready for the Calgary Stampede when he sent us this photo — and all our Honorable Mentions, who also submitted correct answers.

Choose the Easy Way to Retire with Wilkerson

After 47 years in business, Jim Saylor, owner of Jim Saylor Jewelers in Kapa’a, Hawaii, knew retiring successfully meant holding a going-out-of-business sale. He also knew he needed help to do it right. He chose Wilkerson. “I’ve heard a lot of different names of companies that do this type of thing,” says Saylor. “Wilkerson’s always seems to be in the forefront.” Saylor says the Wilkerson folks really cared about the success of the sale, making the next phase of his life a lot easier. “I’d recommend Wilkerson to anybody contemplating a change,” he says. “They are true experts.”
