John Thorn
Contact John at 231-439-5810 When asked to describe his job, John says simply, "Outside Sales." What that really means is he meets builders, remodelers and contractors on their job sites and helps keep the right materials coming at the right time. A former contractor himself, John knows the building process well enough that he can stay a step ahead of the builder to anticipate what to have delivered. He will, "Do what it takes," to keep his customers happy. What might be the biggest surprise about John is that at one time he spent several years in Las Vegas dealing cards. He grew up in the Detroit area graduating from Servite High School and has attended North Central Michigan College. John possesses a great sense of humor stating, "Almost anything," makes him laugh. John has over 20 years in the building industry. He never tires of seeing the completed building projects he has been involved with and enjoys working with everyone at Preston Feather.

Contact Don at 231-439-5843 Don Smith has been with Preston Feather Building Centers since 1984, specializing in being an asset to professional contractors with the researching, pricing and coordinating of quality building materials for their projects. Smith states, "Customer service is our number one service that we provide; we strive very hard to help our customer succeed in their building projects." Don notes that being an independently owned business allows Preston Feather Building Centers the flexibility to cater to our customers in a way that the boxes just can't do. "We are able to work on a more personal level between the staff and the customer." He especially enjoys researching, bidding, supplying material and the satisfaction of being a part of helping complete someone's home, cottage or even a kid's tree house. The Smith family includes wife, son and three daughters. When he's not spending time with the family, or coaching his son's sports teams, Don volunteers as a third-generation fire fighter.

Andy Herman
Contact Andy Herman at 231-439-5821 Andy Herman, graduate of Northern Michigan University's Construction Management program, relocated to the area earlier this year from Marquette. He works with contractors and homeowners to find the appropriate window and door products to fit their projects. Having worked previously for a major regional retailer, Andy likes how Preston Feather hosts an atmosphere that includes all of the customers and staff as family members. One of his favorite challenges is taking a building or remodeling idea from rough sketch to completed project. Andy works hard to make sure every customer is satisfied with the information and the products they receive from Preston Feather. Andy and his wife will be parents for the first time later this year and enjoy the company of three dogs. "Along with my family, my passion is for hunting. Once the weather turns cold I am in the deer stand or in the duck blind." He also enjoys fishing from a kayak, camping, four wheeling and snowmobiling. "I'm also huge football fan, especially of the Packers. I recently became a stock holder in the organization and try to go to at least one game every year." (We anticipate some good football trash talk every fall.)
