IN MEMORIAM: WENDY S. HERSTEIN
Wendy S. Herstein, president, The Right Track, Inc., Crofton, MD,
died June 5 of complications from lung cancer. She was 64. Wendy
and Steve Herstein first went into business together in August
1972 when they purchased a high-end bath accessories business,
Bath and Boudoir. They turned a one-store operation into a company
with four retail locations. Soon after, Steve Herstein began selling
shop-at-home vertical treatments, and the two opened The Right
track fabricating business in early 1984. Never one to rest on
her laurels, Wendy Herstein was not satisfied owning and running
a growing business. She became an active member in the International
Furnishing and Design Association (IFDA) and served for a time
on its board. In 1991, she decided to fulfill a dream and return
to
college. Herstein’s integrity and longstanding relationships
in the window coverings industry enabled The Right Track to grow
and develop and make a mark on the industry. Herstein is survived
by her husband, four children and a grandson. The family has set
up a fund in her name at the Greenbaum Cancer Center. Those wishing
to honor her memory may make donations to the center in her name
at U.M.M.S., 29 Greene St., Baltimore, MD 21201.
