Troy Coppage
President | E.A. Clore’s great-grandson
Troy’s last name is Coppage, but he is a Clore through and through. He started in the family wood shop during college, sanding and maintaining plant equipment. In the years since, he has mastered many of Clore’s traditional tools and techniques and has worked in all facets of the business. Today, Troy manages Clore when he is not designing or working on a piece of furniture.
Troy is the current Chief of the Madison County Volunteer Fire Company. When he stands still long enough, it’s usually to take a weekend away camping or to spend time with family. His newest passion is his first grandbaby, Milo!
Katelyn Blocker
Customer Service Representative
Katelyn is the first person to greet a visitor who walks into our offices. Katelyn worked in the Clore office on her summer breaks from college back in 2016 and 2017 after we announced we were going to close and we got busier than we ever imagined! Now she’s back and working in the office full time as our Customer Service Representative! Katelyn is Troy’s step-daughter. She and her husband, Jason, held their wedding reception in the Clore Showroom in 2022!
Billy Coppage
Master Craftsman | E.A. Clore’s grandson
From his early days in the workshop through his tenure as President of EA Clore, Billy has spent most of his time crafting fine furniture. And he’s still at it today! His deliveries have taken him all over the United States with his wife, Bonnie as sidekick.
Billy served as Chief of the Madison County Volunteer Fire Company for seventeen years. He and Bonnie are grandparents to ten and great-grandparents to eight!
Karen Coppage
Secretary and Marketing Coordinator
Karen is Troy’s wife (and Katelyn’s mom) and has been working at Clore since 2018 as our Marketing Coordinator. She also handles our accounting. She and Troy occasionally make furniture deliveries and even made them on their honeymoon back in 2014! Karen’s passions are all of her children and health/fitness.
