Message from John Morgan:
John was an IGO, ASC, ASA member for over 34 years. John was named the Outstanding Member of the Year in 1984. John spoke with Todd Black a few days ago and with a beaming smile he showed me the plaque.
I am proud that Todd was chosen for this terrific award for I certainly feel he is another dedicated and outstanding person. Of course I am retired now but my name still appears on my old shop with only a slight change. Todd and Janel Black bought my business as a second location for which I am very grateful. One of my deepest concerns was “how will my customers be treated and cared for when I retire?” Needless to say the Black’s are doing a great job. I continually run into old customers and get nothing but great reports.
