The Beginning

Schwarz Furniture of O'Fallon, IL was founded in 1894 by Mathias and Caroline Schwarz, who imigrated from Wuertemberg, Germany. Once a furniture and undertaking business, they purchased it from Charles Ruedlin and ran the business until thier three sons Leonard, Matthew and George took the business over when he retired. Leonard's two sons-in-law Clyde "Tex" Glen and Clarence Lurtz purchased the business in 1950. The Lurtz family sold their half of the business to Clyde and his wife LaDorris in 1978.

Schwarz Furniture continues the family legacy of serving our customers needs. Clyde Glenn, along with his two daughters Mary Kay Zotz and Shari Grippi, continue the tradition into the fourth generation. Clete Zotz, Mary Kay's husband, currently manages the business. Shari Grippi's son, Scott Grippi is in sales and customer service, which continues the tradition into the fifth generation.
