Welcome
Welcome to the Western Fulfillment Management Association's (WFMA) Web site. The WFMA is the West's largest professional circulation association. Run by an all-volunteer Board of Directors, the WFMA serves as a focal point for the best and brightest minds in Western circulation marketing.In Memoriam
The WFMA lost a very dear Board member on Feb. 25 with the tragic passing of Glen Giles. Glen was our longest standing Board member, having served for 19 years. He was the WFMA President from 1993-1994.
As a Board member Glen consistently guided us forward. He had an extreme sense of fairness, and used objectivity and impartiality to satisfy sometimes varying interests and conflicting ideas. He guided us gently and subtly for the most part, and knew just when and how to be forceful when he needed to. He used his exceptional personal skills and political savvy always for the greater good: to make sure the Board did the right thing, even if we hadn’t yet decided on what that was. Glen always knew what was best for us.
And this isn’t the only place to which he gave his time and energy. Glen was also serving on the Board at the NTCFI. He was on the American Business Media Circulation Committee. He had served as a member of the FMA Board. He was an industry icon. From New York to Los Angeles, he was very well known and very well liked.
For this Board, he was a go-to-guy. When we didn’t know, Glen knew. When we couldn’t do it, Glen could. But perhaps most importantly, when we needed a laugh, Glen made us laugh. It won’t be the same without him. To say he’ll be missed is a giant understatement.
