    One-of-a-Kind Quote Door

    ByMary Crozier October 2, 2016

    At a charitable event we attended years ago, a “quote door” was being auctioned to the audience.  I thought it was so unique and unusual but we were outbid.  After the event, we found out who designed and produced it.  We quickly connected with Deb McAnder and started the process of designing our own door. …
