MUTTONTOWN, N.Y. — More than 150 people attended the annual golf outing/dinner here sponsored by the Greater New York Home Furnishings Assn.
At the dinner, Tom Martinez of Seaman's was named winner of the 2002 Jerry Gans Memorial Award, which recognizes an individual for distinguished service to the industry.
The honor is named for Jerry Gans, who with his brother Larry founded Triad Distribution. The award will be presented at the GNYHFA's annual dinner/dance on Nov. 23.
Andrew Gans, president of GNYHFA, received this year's Meadoff Award for Sportsmanship in recognition of his fair play and interpersonal relationships in the industry.
Mark Seigerman and Keith Seigerman of Seigerman's Furniture were presented with a special award by Tom Forrester and Barbara Scalzo of Adults and Children with Learning Disabilities. They were honored for their continued support of that organization.
