Dear friends and colleagues,
The recent, unexpected passing of Chris Davis has left us not only in shock but also with so much sorrow. As an integral part of the floor covering industry for 18 years as the president and CEO of the World Covering Association, Chris was the biggest advocate for the advancement of floor covering retailers through education and their protection through legislative efforts. He also took Surfaces to the next level, eventually selling the show for $40 million and endowing the WFCA’s future. He was the consummate professional.
Because of his larger–than-life personality and love of the industry and people, many regarded Chris as more than the president of WFCA. They considered him a friend.
As the entire industry mourns his loss, Floor Covering News is providing a forum on Facebook, the Chris Davis Memorial Page, where friends and colleagues can offer their thoughts, recollections, photos, condolences, etc. We encourage everyone to remember Chris in their own personal way on this page by visiting facebook.com/ChrisDavisMemorial.
Sincerely,
Steven Feldman
