TFP Jim McClain 3 year anniversary

[MSLI]

It seems much longer than that. I wonder what that means ?

Remember he was trying to clear out excess items from his apartment. He gave me two shot running tools and I bought a Peanuts lunch box that he signed. I wish I would’ve bought one of his photos.

How many of us have ever met Jim or had breakfast with him in his small town ?

RIP Jimbo !

I met him a couple of times in Vegas.

Did you or any of your friends at Surfaces this year talk about ( Jim ) maybe being inducted into the hall of fame ?

 

[DarisMulkin]

nope! What for, because he had a website? A lot of people have them but I don't tink it would get them into the HOF.

That’s one way to see it and I understand.
Here’s another way:

For being an industry leader, and facilitator, of Floor Covering information, done with Integrity. Even though the information appears to be lost, it very much had an impact far reaching to many in the flooring community and for the customers too. EDUCATION BABY HAS VALUE, and all of TFP members would share the honor.

I nominate Jim McClain for HOF STATUS

Don’t know about HOF but definitely an honorable mention would be warranted for that he has contributed to the industry.

He had two websites. He also had one "One Foot in the Grave". I actually posted a story on there once, before he banned me from TFP.

I still have a button down shirt hanging in the closet.

Had two caps, not sure where they are.
