The
History of Super Appliance
M.G. Lamb was born in Jericho, Texas, ten miles East of Groom,
Texas in 1919. He was raised on a farm by parents who instilled Christian
values and hard work ethics.
In 1941, he joined the Seabee’s, a division of the U. S. navy. While in
Detroit, Michigan, he met Monica Seibert who
was also raised in a Christian home. After years of letter writing, they
were married in Clarendon, Texas in 1944.
After WWII, they moved from Detroit to Amarillo and in 1948, together
started Super Refrigeration in a small one-car garage behind their home at
4005 S. Harrison. Because Morris and Monica were reared in homes based on
Christian values, it was only natural that the business they started was
based on those same principles. In 1952, a larger building was moved in to
take the place of the old, single car garage.
Business was good enough to hire the company's first employee, Jack
Barnett. Morris and Jack would make $4.00 service calls all day and do shop
work at night. Meanwhile, Monica was secretary, accountant, homemaker, and
by 1957, mother to four.
By 1962, Super Appliance outgrew its garage behind the family residence
and a building at 421 W. 4th was rented. Employees were added and God
continued to bless. Another move, just a few doors down, was made in 1965 to
a larger building at 413 W 4th, next to the Central Fire Station.
All four children took a turn in the family business. Larry, the
youngest, is now a pastor in San Diego, California. Cynthia married Terry
Bell who started his appliance career at Super. Now, Terry and Cynthia are
the owners of the very successful Bell's Appliance in Amarillo. Nancy was
secretary and parts manager before marrying Stephen Thompson, a Liberal
Kansas attorney and partner in the firm Smith, Greenleaf, and Brooks. Nancy
is the principal at Lincoln Elementary in Liberal. During 1984, Morris and
eldest son Grant purchased and remodeled the downtown block that housed the
facilities of Super Appliance. Because of God’s blessings, Super Appliance
was then the largest independent servicer from Dallas to Denver.
In 1985 Grant and his wife, Carol, purchased the family
business. Even though recession was at its worse, God continued His
blessings. By December of 1989, the retail parts division was expanded to
include a new, second location at 2412 Paramount.
This was the first venture into selling
new appliances. December 1991, both locations were consolidated into one
newer, larger location at 2518 Paramount.
After 44 years, the founders of Super Appliance are still active and an
integral part of the day to day operations. God continues to bless this
"little family business started in a one car garage in 1948.
