Binkley Jewelers, a beloved fixture on Morton's Main Street for 39 years, closed its doors for the last time in March 2021, marking the end of a long and successful journey. Founded in 1982 by Bruce Binkley, the store initially started as a small jewelry business and grew over the years, becoming the go-to destination for custom designs, repairs, and a unique shopping experience. Bruce's dedication to his craft and the community earned him much respect, as he generously donated custom pieces for local fundraisers and participated in mentoring programs. Binkley Jewelers will be remembered for its exceptional service, charming retail space, and the cherished memories shared by both customers and employees.
With a rich history that saw the store relocate to a new location on South Main Street in 1986 and undergo a major renovation in 2013, Binkley Jewelers remained the town's sole full-service jeweler for many years. Bruce's passion for his work and his distinctive personality made him a well-known figure in Morton, and his dedication extended to his family, who were all involved in the business. From Christmas Eve breakfasts to late-night pizza dinners, the Binkley family created a warm and welcoming environment for both employees and customers. As Binkley Jewelers embarks on a well-deserved retirement, the family expresses their gratitude to the community and wishes everyone the best, carrying with them cherished memories of their time in the jewelry business.
