The Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) has named three new Honorary Members of the Association. Jeff Haberer (Trulite Glass & Aluminum Solutions, https://www.trulite.com), Steve Harp (Associated Materials, https://www.associatedmaterials.com) and Mark Mikkelson (Andersen Corporation, https://www.andersenwindows.com) now join the legacy of becoming Honorary Members of FGIA.
Honorary FGIA members are those who are retired from the industry and have demonstrated exceptional dedication and contributions to the Association, have held multiple leadership positions, and/or have had continuous participation in the Association for 20 years or more. Nominations are required from at least three FGIA members, positioning this honor as a peer recognition.
“Congratulations to Jeff, Steve and Mark on this well-deserved honor,” said Janice Yglesias, FGIA Executive Director. “Collectively, they have been involved with FGIA and its activities for decades, making their mark on the industry in ways large and small. Thank you all for your years of dedication and service to FGIA and the industry.
“In his role with FGIA’s GPC, Jeff has been indispensable in setting the mission and guiding the council’s activities. His vision and leadership have helped align the council’s efforts with the broader goals of FGIA, ensuring that research, standards development, certification and education efforts are cohesive and strategically focused,” wrote the nominating members.
“Steve has spent countless hours reviewing association documents, drafting language and actively participating in meetings since 2002,” wrote the nominating members. “And in what is certainly one of the strongest signs of dedication to the organization, he has set up his company with a successor at FGIA.
“Mark has been a regular attendee and active participant to FGIA conferences, meetings and conference calls during Andersen’s membership tenure. He has served on the Board of Directors, as president of the Western Region, on the Southeast Region Technical Committee and has been active in numerous committees and task groups. Mark has also been instrumental in determining FGIA’s positions related to the California Energy Code and Wildland Urban Interface code as well as with the Florida Building Codes and related activities,” wrote the nominating members.
All three inductees will be recognized for this distinction during the 2024 FGIA Fall Conference (https://fgiaonline.org/events/675/), September 16-19.
