Celebrating 43 Years of Dedication – Darryl “Flash” Frazier!

On November 1, 2025, we’re proud to celebrate an incredible milestone. Darryl “Flash” Frazier’s 43rd anniversary with Jim McMichael Signs! Jim hired Flash back in 1982, when he was just 20 years old. He started out hand-lettering vehicles. He also helped Jim move to our new location in 1983, using his old 1974 truck. Since then, he’s become an absolute cornerstone of our shop, a true jack of all trades who can do just about anything. Flash is completely self-taught when it comes to vinyl installation and has a gift for teaching others. He’s the first to take new hires under his wing, showing them the ropes with patience, skill, and a sense of humor that makes every day better. He’s also our longest-tenured employee, with over four decades of dedication, craftsmanship, and leadership that continue to inspire everyone around him.  You’ll never meet a kinder or more genuine person and we’re beyond grateful for the 43 years he’s dedicated to helping make Jim McMichael Signs what it is today.
