Summary

I worked at Jake Klassen's Kitchen Gallery as an installer, many decades ago, shortly after completing three years of Building Construction training as a top student. After gaining experience with Jake's original installers, I eventually started my company called "Integrity, Lasting Bathrooms," where I did everything from advertising art, writing brochures, sales, design, detailed quotes, and nearly every trade involved, for around 25 years. My jobs went very smoothly, and my clients were very satisfied. After my beautiful wife's passing after a long battle with cancer, Lorne Klassen (Jakes son) invited me to join the Klassen team once again. After a few years working for Lorne, a job I loved, and appreciated, Lorne eventually retired, and sold the company. Without Lorne as the full time salesperson, the new owner hasn't fine tuned his formula yet. So, here I am. Seeking a positive new beginning.
