The membership of the Columbia Remodelers met for a Quarterly Meeting on Monday, February 21 at Seawell’s. Special thanks to our meeting sponsor: Andersen windows.

At this first meeting of the year, Chairman Scott Heron installed the 2011/2012 Executive Committee for the council. We also thanked Johnny Del Priore for his work as Chairman in 2010 and presented him with a plaque recognizing his work.

The speaker for the meeting was Moisture Management in Bathroom Construction presented

by Darryl Petty of Schluter Systems. Darryl showed us how the Schluter System encapsulates wet areas of a bathroom and reduces penetrations and moisture damage problems that can arise with traditional construction methods.

Our next Quarterly Meeting is May 31 at Seawell’s at 6:00 p.m. Our topic will be the 2006 IECC Code. The meeting is open to all Columbia Remodelers Members. Non-members may attend for $25/each. Please contact Bin Wilcenski if you have any questions.

The Green Building Council of Greater Columbia held

a Meet ‘n’ Greet for green-minded businesses, leaders

and elected officials on Thursday, March 3 at the HBA

Office. We were very pleased with the attendance

and the opportunity to have this group come together to

further the goal that we all share in making the Midlands

a greener, more sustainable place.

Leading up to the Parade of Homes, members of the

Green Building Council worked with Sovereign Homes

and their Parade of Homes entry. Council Chairman

Joseph Gilmore visited the home and tested it for energy

performance. He also worked with the builders to learn

more about the home before it was completed.

Joseph will compile his findings on the home and have

handouts available during the Parade of Homes (May 7 – 22)

that will explain the many green features of this home.

We’ll also have a special tour of this home during Green

Day at the Parade on Tuesday, May 17. We hope to see

you there!

Tom BaGNaL SR.

Thomas Nettles Bagnal Sr., retired homebuilder, husband of Elise Carson “Sissy” Bagnal, passed away at his home on February 22, 2011. Born

January 17, 1926, in Columbia, he was the son of Mallard and Jessie Bagnal. He is survived by his wife of over 61 years, “Sissy”; his children, Elise Bagnal Flowers and her husband, Charlie, Diane Bagnal-Moody and her husband, Bob, Thomas N. “Tommy” Bagnal Jr. and his wife, Elizabeth; his grandchildren, Carson Flowers Tate and her husband, Andrew, Charles Bays Flowers and his wife, Cathy, Wallis Gandy LeMasurier and her husband, Nick, Marion Moore Gandy III and his

wife, Lauren, Thomas “Tripp” N. Bagnal III, Lauren Elizabeth Bagnal, David Mathews “Matt” Bagnal, James Woodson Bagnal; great-granddaughters, Emma Bays Flowers and Elise Carson Tate.

Tom was a graduate of Columbia High School and he attended The Citadel. He served on active duty in Europe during World War II in the United States Army and had retired from the Army Reserves as a Major.

Tom organized a group of local builders and, in 1958, they chartered Home Builders Association (HBA) of Greater Columbia. He served as the first president for two terms and was involved in local, state and national levels of the HBA. He was a Senior Life Director of the National Association of Home Builders. Tom’s contributions had long been recognized by his peers, having been named Builder of the Year in 1966 and honored with the Gordon A. Harrison Award in 1980. In 1989 he received a REGAL Award from the HBAGC Sales & Marketing Council and The State newspaper for outstanding community service. Tom made tremendous contributions to the community and the state including 12 years on the Richland County Planning Commission.

He was recognized as a successful businessman as a home builder, developer and owner of Bagnal Builders Supply Company. He served as president of the Greater Columbia Chamber of Commerce and was named Ambassador of the Year in 1989. Tom served as chairman of the Board of Directors for the Richland Regional Medical Center Foundation and was a member of the cabinet board for the United Way of the Midlands and past chairman of the boards for the Carolina Children’s Home and Richland

Memorial Hospital. He was a member of the Downtown Civitan Club and served as president. He was inducted by Palmetto Health Foundation as a Foundation Fellow in 2001.

Tom had been a member of First Baptist all of his life where he coached basketball, taught Sunday school and served on numerous committees. Tom was also a member of The Summit Club, Forest Lake Country Club, The Camillia Ball, Quadrille and Caprician Clubs.

The family requests memorials be made to Palmetto Health Children’s Hospital, c/o Palmetto Health Foundation, Dept. 274, P.O. Box 100199, Columbia, SC 29202 or The Citadel Foundation.

THomaS BaGNaL BUILDER oF THE yEaR awaRD

In a unanimous vote, the HBASC Board of Directors decided to rename the Builder of the Year Award to the Thomas Bagnal Builder of the Year Award in honor of the HBASC’s first president Tom Bagnal, who passed away last month. Not only was Bagnal the first HBASC president, but he was the first to serve two consecutive terms.

During the Bird Supper, HBASC President Mike Lowman addressed the Bagnal family and friends, who were in attendance. “Each of you know first hand how much of an influence he was in your life. Our industry and Association were built on Tom’s leadership and we would like to say thank you.”

The Thomas Bagnal Builder of the Year Award will be presented to a deserving builder member during the Celebration of Excellence on Thursday, July 14 at the Myrtle Beach Marriot Resort & Spa at Grande Dunes. Tickets are on sale now. When you and your spouse/guest register for the convention, each of you receive a complimentary ticket.

Columbia area and bring up issues of importance

to our industry. While they were there, they invited

the officials to the HBASC Bird Supper to be held

in Columbia on March 30th. (See next issue for
