Childhood Cancer Awareness
Little Nora Jean’s Fighting Machine
The latest edition to the Henry Poor Lumber delivery fleet, “Nora Jean’s Fighting Machine.”
With the recent addition to Henry Poor Lumber’s delivery fleet of a new Freightliner flatbed moffett truck, we wanted to honor a very special person who has shown us all what toughness and resilience look like.
So we christened our new delivery truck “Nora Jean’s Fighting Machine”.
An Extraordinarily Difficult Time
Jim Andrew’s granddaughter, Nora Jean Dane, was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer at the age of 3. Her treatment required extensive brain surgery, chemotherapy and proton radiation treatments that lasted over a year. From a future that promised little hope to being declared cancer free in 2019, little Nora Jean demonstrated the resilience and heart that got her, and her family, through an extraordinarily difficult time.
Raising Awareness of Childhood Cancer
Little Nora Jean test driving part of the new delivery truck named in her honor.
Did you know that each year, the parents of approximately 15,700 children in the United States will hear the words “your child has cancer”. This diagnosis can devastate a family.
Because of the personal experience the Henry Poor Lumber and Flooring Express family has been through with Nora Jean, they are committed to raising the awareness of the impact of childhood cancer on the lives of many young people and their families.
Childhood Cancer Facts
In honor of little Nora Jean, Henry Poor Lumber will donate 20 cents for every mile the Nora Jean Fighting Machine logs in 2020 to the Morgan Adams Foundation.
The Morgan Adams Foundation funds kids’ cancer research. They raise awareness of, and educate our communities about the need for pediatric and young adult specific cancer treatments.
Working with leading researchers and physicians, the Morgan Adams Foundation funds new and innovative ideas that will improve cancer treatment effectiveness, overall outcomes, survival rates and quality of life while minimizing the devastating side effects current treatments have on children.
To learn more about and how to support this organization go to the Morgan Adams Foundation.

3 Easy Steps to Remodel Your Fireplace
Go from old to new with an easy to install gas fireplace insert.
Do you have an ugly, dated, wood-burning fireplace you’d like to bring back to life? Brass doors from the 80s. Dirty soot and ashes. Messy firewood. Uninviting. Unused. If so, it’s time to remodel your fireplace.
The simplest and most cost effective way to transform your old brick or manufactured fireplace into an attractive and comfortable space is with a Heat & Glo gas fireplace insert.
Henry Poor Lumber offers Heat & Glo gas fireplace inserts that turn an used wood-burning fireplace into an energy efficient and attractive centerpiece of your room.
A “gas insert” fits inside your wood-burning fireplace opening. It is fed by a copper gas line that brings instant warmth into your home. All with no work and just the touch of a button.
Easy As One, Two, Three
A fireplace makeover is an amazingly easy process that converts your wood-burning fireplace into a beautiful, warm and easy-to-use gas fireplace insert with these three easy steps.
This is also the time to update the overall look of your fireplace by installing new stone or brick facing, or painting the older brick to give it a contemporary, refreshed look.
Contact one of our specialists at Henry Poor Lumber at 765-474-1388 or stop by our store on Brady Lane. We’ll be happy to show you the many options available to update one of the main areas of your home.
