ROCKTON â For more than 30 years, Steeple Furniture has been helping residents of the Tri-County area furnish their homes with quality furniture at fair prices.
How the store came into being could be considered providence. Owner Shirley Conrad said her late husband, Galon Conrad, approached her in the late 1980s about purchasing a vacant building at 101 North St. in Rockton that had been home to the Rockton Community Baptist Church.
