Shirley J. Lorberbaum, who along with her husband Alan co-founded Aladdin Mills, has been inducted to the World Floor Covering Association Industry Hall of Fame. The posthumous honor was accepted by her son, Mohawk CEO Jeff Lorberbaum, during a reception at Surfaces 2003 in Las Vegas.
Lorberbaum, who passed away in Oct. 1999, became the 30th inductee of the WFCA Hall of Fame and only its second female member, sharing that distinction with the late Rose Blumkin of Nebraska Furniture Mart.
