Meet Our Team
Before
you come in and see us, we'd like you to get to know a little bit about
each of our staff members. Each person on our team loves what they do
and every person plays a special role in the success of our company.
Remember - we're here for you! Whether you visit us as a consignor or a
buyer, we want you to feel at home at Riverbridge Resale and
Consignment.
In 2004, Kay and Danny George opened
their doors. With their passion for serving others as a
driving force, and Kay's interest in home decorating as well as
a desire to provide a refreshing alternative to conventional
resale methods - Riverbridge Resale and Consignment was born!
Like
you, Kay likes to redecorate her home to keep things fresh and
exciting. Often times, our surroundings get stale and boring, not
because of a lack of desire for change, but rather the difficulty of
finding affordable home furnishings and selling our existing items.
Kay
and Danny saw that many of the Houston area home associations did not
allow garage sales in their neighborhoods and was keenly aware that
classified advertising tends to be frustrating and time
consuming. They saw a great need for a resale and consignment shop
and put their passions to work for their community.
Even though Danny has a full time job elsewhere, Riverbridge benefits
from his many skills.
