The Story of the Boom Family

Native Californians, Glenn and Sally the Boom, settled in Montrose after many years of living across the country while working for Shell Oil Company. They fell in love with the Eastern Shore area in 1978 and decided to stay, becoming very active in church and community.

Retired Navy Captain Glenn worked in the oil industry and developed numerous service stations/convenience stores in this area and Pensacola. 

Queen Sally, as we like to call her, traveled the country as an artist, designer, consultant, and teacher specializing in all types of needlework while raising 4 children. She is very active in Shire daily life and the weekly Castle Walks.
