Bob Leistiko
Sales Support
I have been an employee of Yetzer for over 20 years, and have been in the flooring industry for 35 years. As our in-home flooring estimator, I am responsible for coming out to your home to review and measure your rooms to ensure the successful installation of your new flooring. I enjoy going out to customers’ homes and businesses to help assess what is needed for their projects and make recommendations along the way.
In my free time I enjoy playing Sheephead and watching Minnesota sport teams.

Brent Oney
Sales Manager - Flooring
I am very excited to have joined the Yetzer Team in 2014. With years of experience in project management, estimating and overseeing a sales team, I am responsible for the day to day operations of our Flooring store. My experience in the flooring industry includes everything from smaller home renovations to large scale commercial flooring projects. I love getting to know our customers and helping them through the entire process from product selection through successful installation in their home.
I attended Mankato State University and proudly served in the United States Army. When not at work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. And as they would attest to, I’m always open to a round or two of golf.

I love meeting and working with customers to find what will work best for them. Although I am the “newbie” at Yetzer, I have over 20 years of design experience under my belt. My favorite part is getting to know new people and helping them have a great shopping experience. My husband and I live in Waconia with our 2 children. We enjoy going to the cabin to relax and stay busy with all the kids’ activities. I look forward to helping you…stop in to say hi!

Lynette Wiest
Executive Assistant
My name is Lynette and I'm not officially employed by Yetzer Home Store, but I'm married to the owner so l'm more of a cheerleader, greeter, and educator. I'm very passionate about what Yetzer Home Store can do for you. Before shopping at Yetzer Home Store I thought when you went to a furniture store all that was available for sale was already on the floor. I didn't know I could get exactly what I wanted or help if I didn't know what I wanted! I love that Yetzer Home Store employs designers to help you create what you are envisioning for your home. They offer FREE In-Home and In-Store design! They not only offer help with furniture design, but also incredible accessories that put the final touch on a room. Shopping at Yetzer Home Store is a unique and special experience compared to other furniture stores. They truly care that you get exactly what you are looking for without settling for less!

Thomas Wiest
Sales and Operations
Born in Minnesota, grew up in South Dakota, graduate of Northern State University in Aberdeen, I’m an author, an Eagle Scout, a LIFETIME FITNESS fan, a Dad to two great kids and a long-time Shakopee resident. I’ve been in retail my entire life, some 30+ years, working for many diverse retailers and most of that time in multi-unit management roles. When it concerns standard business operating procedures, training, communications, disciplines, development, human resources, operations, and sales - basically if you want to get from point A to point B, I can help. When you think about retail though, it really does not matter what you sell, retail is really creating and building strong and positive relationships with people. I enjoy helping our customers solve their needs, helping our team spread our wings and evolve into the best home furnishings and flooring company that we are meant to be, supporting their passions in and out of work and supporting our local community and city events. Please enjoy and share your experience at Yetzer!

Todd Willsey
Sales Support – Delivery, Repair and Installation
With over thirty years living and working near Waconia, I am happy to be the rookie on the Yetzer team. My wife and I have relied on Yetzer over the years so when I saw a job posting, it didn't take long to chase after it. My wife's family has roots here going back several generations and I am a transplant from Kentucky so I understand the culture of long-rooted families and those who are just settling in. I enjoy meeting people, traveling and using my abilities to help people. So whether you say Good Morning, Guten Tag or Buenas Dias I got you covered!

Wade Rolf
Sales and Design
I started working for Yetzer in 1987 after receiving a business/marketing degree. When I started here I simply had intentions of completing my education. I soon realized that this wasn’t just another small town furniture store but rather, a store that took pride in customer service and truly wanted to help the customer achieve their home furnishing goals. I am proud to say that I have been part of keeping this tradition going ever since. In fact, I was honored for this work by being named Salesperson of the Year in 2004 by the National Home Store Association for the Upper Midwest. Needless to say 29 years later I’m still here to help to make your house truly your home.
