Dave's Story
Hello,
I am the Owner and President of Homecenter Display Company located in Bowie, Md. I have 15 employees and we install graphics and displays at Home Depot locations from New York to Richmond Virginia. I went into Business for myself and started the Company after 25 years in the Retail arena. My last position was Region Manager Eastern USA, for Sears Home Improvement Division. I have been married to my wife Candice since 1985. She was diagnosed with MS in 1991 and has spent her adult life living with and overcoming the effects of this destructive disease of the Central Nervous system. She currently is a member of the Maryland MS society and Chapter in Towson Md. I remain her biggest fan and supporter.

For everyone who reads this short biography from Northeast, I wish you success and a more importantly a long Healthy life. The Almighty certainly has a plan for everyone, it is often very different from the direction that you think that you will be headed in when graduating from High School. That seems like a Million days and miles ago for me. But 30 years later I have found that simple things in life really are the best, and best for us. I do wonder with all of our 2012 technology if we really are better off?
Best to All,
David A Brooks
