Bill > HJR164

This resolution commends Clarksville Furniture and Flooring for celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2026, recognizing its rich history that began in the early 1920s with Franz Julius Liipfert, a furniture maker, and its official establishment as Clarksville Furniture Company in 1926. The resolution highlights the business's evolution from manufacturing its own furniture to selling high-quality American-made products, its various ownership changes, and its expansion under Larry Kindley, Jr. to include flooring, tiling, lighting, and home decor, all while fostering customer loyalty and strong subcontractor relationships. It further acknowledges the business's continued legacy of family ownership under Joe and Michelle Mitchell, who maintain its reputation as a trusted hometown business offering a wide range of products and personalized service, and expresses the General Assembly's admiration for its longstanding contributions to the Clarksville community.
