In 2013 Dennis passed away and Gaylene continued the mall with the help of her very dedicated staff. Adapting and changing the name to Roscoe Antique Mall of South Beloit, the business continued on a successful trajectory offering our customers not only exceptional merchandise but also some fabulous “Dealer Collection” displays, antique classes, and fun annual promotions. In 2003 they were given the opportunity to move to a larger more accessible location 4-miles north in South Beloit.

These principals, along with the help of many experienced antique dealers/friends, made the business grow. Their goal was a quality mall, which offered true antiques in attractive displays, which were always changing to keep the mall exciting for the customers.
