NADRA
We searched through the archives and came across an award we presented to Mr. Bob Fogarty back in 2008. Here's to you, Bob:
"The 2008 Honor Award goes to: Bob Fogarty for his leap of faith at NADRA's beginnings and his continuous support. We just love the big guy. He was there when 19 guys put $100 a piece in a hat. He believed in NADRA from the beginning and has never stopped believing."
It was a good run, Bob. We will see you on the other side, my friend.
Thank you to our industry friends for the outpouring of love and gratitude for the time everyone shared with Bob. If you'd like to comment on our Facebook page and share your stories, we encourage you to do just that. If there are more links to industry articles about Bob, please share them with us. Here is a great article from Kim Katwijk in Professional Deck Builder Magazine, just released today: Robert Emmett Fogarty, 1945-2016, Founding Member of NADRA Dies at Age 70.

Outdoor living doesn’t just mean a simple patio with a few chairs anymore, according to IBS presenter Maxine Lauer, CEO of Michigan-based Sphere Trending. Lauer says when it comes to outdoor space, home buyers wish to recreate what they have inside, such as a family room with comfortable seating and a fireplace, a dining area with a table and chairs, and an outdoor kitchen where they can prepare a meal.
