Sam, Judy Adams and Marcus Turner have known each other since the late 1970's. Sam and Marcus became friends in high school through a mutual interest in cars, and Judy entered the picture as part of their larger circle of friends.

Through the years, Sam and Marcus worked together off and on in automotive shops; always remaining friends. Sam and Judy began dating and eventually married, and Judy became employed as a high school teacher. In the summer of 1989 Judy went to school to learn the craft of bending glass (neon). Shortly thereafter, Judy and Sam opened The Neon Zone, Inc. in their home with Sam actually going door to door selling and repairing signs. They soon established a reputation for being dependable, producing quality work and care and always standing behind their product.

In 1992, The Neon Zone move to their first Woodstock location, then across the street in 1993.

In 1995, as the business grew, they realized that they needed someone else with intelligence, motivation and a work ethic that mirrored their own. Enter Marcus. Together, the three have been keeping The Neon Zone running smoothly for almost 15 years. Others have been added to the team, of course, most notably, Mike Johnson in April 1999, first as a neon tube bender and then as a service foreman; also, Stacy Asby as graphics and project manager in 2000; and a team of installers that represent the company in the field who realize the importance of a job done well. The company has grown significantly in 20 years, but the original goal has not changed: to provide quality work, done by reputable people for a fair price.
