In 1989, I was asked by Charlotte legend Eugenia Carter to work with her as an
associate and I jumped at the chance. I worked with Genia over fourteen years and
learned so much from her. She passed away February 4th of 2004. She was greatly
loved by so many and left a large void in a lot of lives.
My wife, Brigitte, started helping me with office work during Genia's convalescence
and advanced to assistant. She has since worked her way up to CEO and I am now
labor.
