Joe and Sandy Paffoon

For Joe and Sandy Paffoon, moving to Florida to semi-retire didn’t quite come off as planned. Instead it led them to the sign business and two decades of creative sign making. Here’s what Joe told us about where Boardwalk Designs is today on a Friday afternoon at the end of a busy week:

This is our 22nd year in the sign business. It’s a pretty typical sign shop story. We moved here from the Atlanta area with the idea of semi-retiring. In Atlanta, I had a hardwood flooring company. I also had some experience with CAD and had purchased a used Ioline plotter.
