Over 25 years ago, I hired my father-in-law, J.J. Prendamano to be our General Manager at Signarama. What a lot of people thought was a crazy idea (hiring your father-in-law) turned into the smartest decision I’ve ever made. J.J. started in our first store in Farmingdale, New York to learn the business and quickly moved to our Corporate Headquarters in Florida (see memo on next page). He brought business experience with 20 years at General Electric (GE), but more importantly, he brought life experiences to a young company. He became my “sounding board” for my ideas and thoughts. We fought at times but never lost respect for each other. He stopped me from making many mistakes and brought a true mentor into our company. He showed love for employees and franchisees alike and started our franchise mentor program. Most importantly, he led by example. From 58 years of marriage to Suzanne to being the best father possible of three girls, to accepting his three sons-in-law as family, to being the best “Poppy” to his grandchildren, J.J. lived an amazing life. Of it all, he would tell you he loved Jesus the most!
