He started in the vacuum and sewing machine industry in 1955, working as a sales representative for the Singer Sewing Machine canvassing door to door selling sewing machines, sewing products and vacuum cleaners. He stayed with the Singer for over 25 years. During his tenure he worked his way into Store Manager, District Manager, Regional Training Manager and ultimately Manager of the Management Development where he was responsible for development of sales and training programs to be used by 960 company stores and 1500 dealers. While a visionary in the field of sales and management with the Singer , Howard received multiple awards and designations including Salesman of the Year, Top Team Leader and Top Performer. He became known for his rendition of “Everything is Beautiful” at the start of most, if not all, of his training sessions. Many of the individuals he trained in sales and management techniques with Singer have gone on to be very successful today.



In 1980, Howard opened his first sewing and vacuum dealership in Dallas, TX. With the success of this dealership, he opened additional dealerships in Texas, owning four at one point in his career. He currently owned Thomas Sewing in Mesquite, TX, which has been doing business in the Mesquite area for 30 years. His dealership has been awarded Top Ten Sales for Janome America for 19 years running. The store has participated in the Texas State Fair for over 30 years where thousands of people have been introduced to the art and creativity of sewing and quilting for the first time. Howard has been instrumental in the training and development of many Economics Teachers in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. There are still successful programs in this area supporting the growth and development of young students in the art of sewing and the store also offers summer sewing programs for young teens, encouraging the excitement of sewing. also participate annually in many charitable programs sewing quilts for children with various needs, also working with many church groups, quilting guilds and schools in supporting the growth and development of sewing and quilting.



There are many individuals in the community, and in and out of the sewing industry that have learned winning sales techniques from Howard. Countless employees and family members have worked for Thomas Sewing over the years, providing a healthy living for their families. Howard and his wife, Dona, always put family, employees and customers first. If you had ever met, trained with or worked with Howard, you would know his motto, “Demonstrate often, demonstrate well, that is the key to a successful sale!”….and if you were lucky, you might have caught a verse of “Everything is Beautiful”.
