In 1971, Jim and his wife Shirley opened Keenan Jewelers in the Butte Plaza Mall, where several of the Keenan's children worked in the store through the years.  In 1998, Jim and Shirley retired from the business and sold to three of the Keenan siblings--Jim Keenan, Rita Ronning, and Rhonda Lee. In 2012, Rita Ronning retired from the store. After 40+ years in the business, she still occasionally helps out at Keenan's

Keenan Jewelers is a full service jewelry store featuring high quality diamond and gemstone jewelry, watches, and other fashionable and affordable gold and silver jewelry.

We still offer the services the business was built on, offering in-house repairs, expert stone setting, laser welding, and custom work.  Jim Keenan is a JA Certified Bench Jeweler, and Ryan Lee--a third generation in the business--has had training at the New Approach School for Jewelers in Virginia Beach, VA.
