Clyde Hooker retires from board
By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, May 28, 2004
MARTINSVILLE, Va. -- After 60 years with Hooker Furniture, Chairman Emeritus J. Clyde Hooker Jr. is leaving the company’s board for health reasons.
He is the son of the company’s founder and was its CEO from 1966 to 2000.
“I can never adequately express what Clyde Hooker has meant to all the people he has touched during his career,” said Paul Toms, Hooker chairman and CEO. “We are indebted to him for all his service to the board, this company and the industry.”
Mark Schreiber, a former president and chief operating officer of Houston retailer Star Furniture, has joined the board, replacing Alan Cole, who resigned earlier this year after becoming president of Schnadig Furniture. The company has not yet filled Clyde Hooker’s seat.
