Testimonial Quote

- Johnny T.

“Brittany went above and beyond customer service to make sure she helped me, and saved me hundreds, when I was prepared to spend money on new frames. Was really impressed with her! Especially, as I said, she spent her own time, and work doing this, and I didn’t even know this was an option. Thank you Kennedy!”

Testimonial Quote

- Ande S.

“Staff is phenomenal!!! We had late appointments and the folks helping us pick out frames were so patient, meticulous and stayed late for us, even when I made a change to what I wanted at the very end. Will never go anywhere else but Kennedy.”
