SUN GLASS HISTORY

Our Story

Sun Glass was founded in Farmington, New Mexico by N.L. Garrett Sr. in 1952. The business was then purchased by Cliff Freeman and James Newlun in 1999. Then in the fall of 2008 Cliff Freeman (father) and Clint Freeman (son) purchased James Newlun’s shares of the business making it a true family owned and operated business. 

In the winter of 2014, Sun Glass added a retail location in Durango, Colorado by purchasing another local historical business from Michael and Janet Kuss, Durango Glass, which was also founded in 1952.   

Then in 2018, Sun Glass brought both Lonnie’s Glass and Auto Glass Wizard into the family giving Sun Glass a brick & mortar presence in Cortez, Colorado.  Lonnie’s Glass was been founded in 1964 and run by the Lonnie Elliott and subsequently run by his son Heath Elliott who purchased the business in 2009.  After the purchase, Heath stayed with the company and now works for the Sun Glass Durango branch.  Auto Glass Wizard was founded in 2013 by Andy and Kristyn Spruell after Andy had begun his glass career with Lonnie’s Glass.  Andy and Kristy both stayed with Sun Glass initially with Andy running the Cortez branch and Kristyn in a CSR role.  Today Andy operates as the companies VP of Operation and Kristyn handles retrofit 

window & door sales for the Cortez branch. 

Most recently, through acquisition Pagosa Glass came into the Sun Glass family in the summer of 2021 adding a physical location in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Pagosa Glass was founded back in 1976 by Bob and Eula Black.  Their granddaughter and her husband, Stacia and Matt Aragon, then acquired and began operating the business in 1998.
