Congratulations to this year's Hall of Fame winner Howard Pryor! Howard was voted into the Hall of Fame by many of his colleagues. When asked why Howard should be inducted into the Hall of Fame one of his colleagues said, "Howard has been a promoter of CTDA and the tile industry.

His leadership on the green initiative is outstanding".
