From Old to New

In 1997 the High Point – Thomasville Chapter moved from it’s old location on English Road to the new building on Phillips Avenue. It was a dream come true to all that worked out of the old building for so many years. I wish I could devote time to cover the transition from old to new but time is running out. I did want to share pictures with you, because they bring back so many memories. Mike visited the site every day and checked on the construction. He took a weeks vacation so that he could help with the Cat 5 and Cat 3 wiring for network and telephones. He knows that building inside and out.

The new building was dedicated in loving memory of Linda Burrow Oxford, daughter of Ray Burrow and sister of Gary, Doug and Kellie Burrow. Ray Burrow and Family also dedicated the building in memory of Wayne and Mary Sullivan and in honor of the Employees of Wayne Trademark and the Congregation of Lebanon United Methodist Church. It was dedicated in July, 1997.
