Speaking at Sonny’s Memorial Service, I remembered, for celebrating his 25th birthday on March 19th this year, his journey back to the beautiful Grand River by which our sweet home is located.
I also recalled our journey together when I was writing the book titled “Lean Manufacturing: Business Bottom-Line Based.” When Sonny was driving over interstate I-74 covered by heavy snow, I wrote down the book preface:
Manufacturing excellence flows with robust design, just like the great Grand River and Mississippi River.
