The Eclectic Cupboard is pleased to present a living estate sale for the Seegmiller family of Rochester, MN. Larry and Linda Seegmiller have downsized and must part with many of their unique collections and hobby supplies. Although both Larry and Linda had long careers in the Rochester area – Larry at IBM and Linda at Mayo – you might say they kept even busier outside of work! Both Larry and Linda enjoyed participating in rendezvous events and have a wide variety of items related to these, including cast iron, leather supplies, artisan pieces and more. Larry was also extremely interested in woodworking and stained glass and has items related to both hobbies, but particularly woodworking. We have multiple rooms full of Larry’s tools, books and creations, including many wonderful whirligigs and pieces of Halloween décor. Linda enjoyed quilting and we have a delightful selection of her creations along with other quilts – vintage and new – on the sale. The Eclectic Cupboard is pleased to assist the Seegmiller family in finding new homes for their many treasures.
