The business name stems from another family endeavor that was created in the 1930s. The Stella Mae , named after Billy’s mother, was a tour boat that offered excursions to passengers along Lake Kampeska. The
large boat had a prop—or propeller—which Williams detached and placed outside of the new building. “For many years it was outside of our business and had a sign that said, ‘Give the prop a spin to keep us going,’” shared Conda.
