Manufacturing excellence flows with robust design, just like a great river

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:

About 50 miles east of the Mississippi River, I found myself back in Galesburg, a western city of 34,000 and the birthplace of poet Carl Sandburg.

I found Carl Sandburg College’s Center for Manufacturing Excellence, representing the beautiful city’s continued pursuit for world-class manufacturing.

Manufacturing excellence flows with robust design, just like the great Grand River and Mississippi River.
