For the last few weeks, a clearance sale has been underway at Edward-Johns Jewelers, which has been located at Woodlawn Square Shopping Center (1205 Johnson Ferry Road) for years.
That’s because the long-time East Cobb business has been in the process of relocation. The new space is now open at 1225 Johnson Ferry Road, Suite 801. It’s behind the Fidelity Bank building, a bit further up Johnson Ferry from the Woodlawn center.
Phone service (770-977-2026) is expected to be restored later today, and this week’s schedule is 10-5:30 today, Tuesday and Friday. The store will be closed Wednesday and Thursday.
A message on the Edward-Johns Facebook page said owner Johnny Johnson is undergoing emergency surgery and the business will be short-handed for the time being as it finally settles in its new location.
Johnson opened Edward-Johns Jewelers in 1979, and he has become an important and visible figure in the business, educational and civic community in East Cobb and Cobb County.
He’s been an East Cobb Citizen of the Year, is a past president of the Cobb County YMCA, served on the Cobb Board of Education and is a charter member of the East Cobb Kiwanis Club.
He also serves as Santa Claus for the Christmas Tree lighting at East Cobb Park.
