Carlton mclendon a long time friend passed away the day after Christmas .
For many years he ran a shop specializing in exotic woods and veneers in
Atlanta .

He sponsored many woodworkers in the area through his knowledge, expertise
and generosity [myself included] .

Starting from a small shop in Montgomery Alabama to a major manufacturer of
Victorian reproductions in that area selling the product worldwide .


A man who never met an enemy ,never said a bad word about anyone but
enriched everyone he came in contact with. he will be sorely missed ....mjh

I'm nowhere near Atlanta, but your words give me a good sense of the man.
A nice tribute and an inspiration. -- Igor
