We’ve been promoting the annual selection process for FOUNDRY Management & Technology's Hall of Honor program for about six weeks, and the period for nominations is open for another two weeks or so, ‘til July 15. If you know someone who has positively influenced the metalcasting industry, please consider nominating him or her for this honor. They deserve the recognition, and the industry deserves to gain by their example.
The FOUNDRY Management & Technology Hall of Honor recognizes men and women whose technical and process innovations; organizational leadership; professional and industrial standards; and personal contributions and achievements have improved and enhanced metalcasting as a science, as an industry, and as a community.
From time to time I think about the list of past honorees, most recently when I reviewed the life and work of the late and beloved Paul Carey. Knowing Paul, there was nothing in his manner that called out for attention, but his enthusiasm for his work and that of his metalcasting colleagues was palpable. It was for that he was deserving of recognition.
Because I think that listing these honorees just once each year in our September issue is not enough, I’m republishing here the list of FM&T Hall of Honor inductees. There may be some you know or have known — and there may be someone you know who deserves recognition for their accomplishments and contributions to the industry.
Remember that nominations are open until July 15.Hall of Honor Inductees
