BARRY LILLEY worked in the coal mining industry for 24 years until Dilworth Mine closed in November 2002. He took advantage of the training opportunities available for dislocated coal miners, choosing to attend the building inspection program at California University of Pennsylvania at Southpointe. When he completed the program, he applied for a position with Home Depot and was hired on the spot because of his degree and his state certifications in several

residential and commercial building inspection fields. He helped to put the new store together in Uniontown and has distinguished himself as an excellent employee. He was the first employee to receive a "customer service merit award" in the Uniontown Home Depot and has received two more awards since then. He receives excellent benefits, great pay and incentives.
