By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, October 28, 2001

HIGH POINT — The International Home Furnishings Market Authority held a farewell party after its meeting last week for two departing board members.

Jim Morgan of the High Point Convention and Visitors Bureau resigned from the board and was replaced by Chris Greene, who chairs the bureau board. Greene and her husband also own manufacturer Classic Gallery.

Earl N. "Phil" Phillips Jr. stepped down last month after he was named U.S. ambassador to the Eastern Caribbean. Joanna Easter filled his spot as a representative of Showplace.
