Our beginning
Randolph Home Furnishings was founded in 1955 by Paul and Barbara Warner and has proudly served the community ever since. For generations, the business has been built on a simple philosophy: treat customers with honesty, integrity, and personal care.
In the early years, Paul sold hardware, electronics, and appliances while also providing heating and cooling, plumbing, and electrical services. Paul and Barbara raised six children—Laurie, Gary, Denise, Kevin, Jeff, and Greg—and the store quickly became a true family operation, with the children helping out as they grew up. Paul was also deeply involved in the community, serving as a volunteer firefighter and an active member of the Randolph Lions Club.
Over the years, the family building has been home to several small businesses. Barbara operated a floral and gift shop, while Paul’s brother, Harold “Hap” Warner, ran a grocery store and his wife Norma owned a beauty salon. The building became a hub of local activity and entrepreneurship, reflecting the Warner family’s commitment to serving their community.
As the needs of customers evolved, so did the business. Randolph Home Furnishings expanded its focus to include furniture, flooring, window treatments, and in-home design consultation—offering customers complete solutions to help make their homes comfortable and beautiful.
In 1997, Laurie took ownership of the business and continued to grow its services by introducing residential and commercial design. Over the years, Denise became an important part of the team, bringing years of furniture and design knowledge and helping customers create spaces that feel both beautiful and functional.
Greg and Jeff have also played important roles in the business, contributing their experience in sales, warehousing, delivery, and repair services to help ensure customers receive the quality service and support Randolph Home Furnishings is known for.
In 2005, Laurie’s son Dan joined the team, bringing the third generation of the family into the business. In 2017, Dan’s wife Ashley joined Randolph Home Furnishings, continuing the family tradition and helping lead the business into the future.
Today, Randolph Home Furnishings remains proud to be a third-generation, family-owned business serving our community since 1955—committed to helping generations of families create homes they love.
