Anne, Dave, & Sue-
When I started working in the shop in Sept. of 1990, I spent a lot of time during the first few months on the road w/ your dad installing window treatments and doing deliveries and estimates. It was just him and me, and at first I was petrified of him, but as time went on, I realized that behind that initial "rough around the edges" exterior, was a really caring, considerate, and funny guy. During my years at Warners I learned a lot from him-about the upholstery business for sure, but also about life and how best to approach people and problems with humor -not the least of which were a slew of witty "one liners"-most of which should not be repeated here-that I use constantly! I think of him-and your mom-often, and when I do, "it ALMOST always makes me smile". (one of my personal favorites!)
