Distinguised Service - Part 2

In 1996 & 1997 Mike was honored, by his employer Prudential, for his community service. He received the Prudential Community Champions Shining Star Award. A total of $7,000 was given to the High Point – Thomasville Chapter in Mike’s honor. Mike requested that the donation be directed to the Capital Campaign for the new chapter that was being built on Phillips Avenue. The donation was earmarked for the construction of the detached garage. Mike was proud to have the garage dedicated in his name. There would finally be a place for disaster storage – something the old chapter totally lacked. So if anyone wonders why he takes such an interest in keeping the garage organized, now you know.
