' One year ago, together with David Thompson, they purchased Custom Craft kitchens in Sunset, and this week they are holding the grand opening of the business, now Timberline Cabinets in Roy. ; The Kasuskes are South Dakota natives who moved to Utah four years ago when they sold their cabinet business there. They both started working for Custom Craft, which they eventually purchased. Kasuske said the move to Roy was because they needed more space. The facility, located at 4022 S. 1900 West in Roy, has tripled the size of their business and they have doubled the staff size from the Sunset location. The enjoyment of being his own boss was motivation for Kasuske to enter the business and he said he is not afraid of the depressed building industry. . Their motto explains part of why, when so many construction related industries are failing their business is thriving and allowing expansion. The motto is Our quality starts where most others leave off. Kasuske said people are looking for specialization in the field and that is what they offer. He will go out and measure, design and build a cabinet for a particular home and tailor it to builders needs. He explained that most of the cabinet shops today build everything in one size and then fit them in. Customization helps give the product a little extra touch. The company salesman, Robert C. Rush, a retired Hill Air Force Base employee, said the young company is gaining customers every day. Rush brings 30 years of management experience to the business and said the customers are impressed by the personalized services, and the quality and workmanship of the products. We use the highest priced material on the market, Kasuske said. They start with a raw piece of wood and work it into the customers design.

Mountain Bell District Manager Phil Selander said there are some new features in this years book. SPECIALIZING IN BUILDING custom cabinets and using oak wood the Timberline Cabinet Shop has opened at a new location in Roy. Formerly Custom Craft Cabinets in Sunset the shop is now located at 4022 S. 1900 West and is owned by Dalton J. (Joe) Kasuske (top right) and David Thompson (top left). The lower picture is of their nearly completed display kitchen out of oak. The kitchen, located in the shop's show room was designed by Kasuske who designs many of the custom cabinets the shop builds. The most notable change is the addition of a new customer information section, called the customer guide, located in front of the white pages listings. The new guide is divided into several sections. One section consolidates many phone numbers for community and agencies providing community assistance, such as information on health care, voting and services he said. The largest section tells about Mountain Bell policies concerning credit, billing and consumer rights and responsibilities. It also gives advice on Social Security, lnandling unwanted or annoyance calls. Other tips tell customers how to save time and money on service connection, local service and long distance calling. Another new feature is the inclusion of a yellow pages index. According to Selander, that should make it much easier for customers to locate classified headings. New business office numbers for residential customers are also a part of the 1981 directory. Selander has encouraged everyone to become familiar with the pages concerning business office matters. Mountain Bells vendors are delivering more than 200,000 directories. If someone does not receive a book by today, residential customers 0 should call (dial 1 plus the e number if outside the local 626-550- toll-fre- calling area).
