E & M Electric is a family owned and operated business begun by Don Elam and Terry McCoy in 1978. The business started with only a card table, a chair, a phone, and Claudia Givens. Givens, who has been employed at E & M “since day two” of the business, is now assisted by Jaye Winkleman in managing the office. In the early years Mr. Elam hosted microwave cooking classes when microwaves were first on the market. That year E & M sold 200 microwaves (all wrapped by Claudia) as Christmas gifts!
The services and office furniture have been greatly expanded over the years. E & M still sells appliances and now provides sales and service for electrical, mechanical, plumbing, heating, cooling, and refrigeration needs — both residential and commercial.
