NWFA Foundation Announces Virgil Hendricks Scholarship
The NWFA Education and Research Foundation has established a scholarship fund in honor of Virgil Hendricks, the founding father of the NWFA who served as its first president. The owner of Lockwood Flooring and president and owner of Mid-West Floor in St. Louis, Hendricks was inducted into NWFA Hall of Fame in 1990.
Earlier this year, a fundraising campaign was launched by Harry Lindquist of PanTim Wood Products to raise $20,000 to create a scholarship fund to honor Hendricks and the significant contributions he made to the wood flooring industry.
