    ASHRAE Ausn:

    Hello, Ausn Chapter. I want to intro-

    duce myself as your new 2011-2012

    Chapter President. I have been an acve

    volunteer on the BOG for the AusnChapter for the past 7 years so I have

    had a chance to meet many of you. Im

    looking forward to the upcoming year

    with great programs, seminars, and fund

    -raising events.

    I hope everyone is enjoying their sum-

    mer and surviving this killer heat wave.

    A summer like this makes you appreciate

    how important our industry and HVAC is

    to everyone. Can you imagine if you did-

    nt have air-condioning during some of

    these past 106F days??? It also makes

    you realize how large the opportunity for

    energy savings is within our industry

    (and your home electric bill if it has been

    as large as mine the last couple of

    months!).

    One of my goals this year is to increase

    aendance at our chapter meengs, par-

    cularly with the engineering communi-

    ty, or the E in ASHRAE. To aract more

    engineers, we are going to have pro-

    grams with subject maer more relave

    to their interest and educaon needs.

    We are also going to have some chapter

    meengs with other organizaons in our

    industry to allow for some addional

    networking and cross training. Finally,

    weve already got a great tour sched-

    uled for those with interest in refrigera-

    on and/or beer!

    Another one of my goals for this year is

    to connue to grow our Young Engi-

    neers in ASHRAE, or YEA. Ashley Brad-

    ford did a great job with promong YEA

    and organizing events to bring these

    young people together. We expect

    more great turnouts and involvement

    with YEA again this year. Be on the

    lookout for upcoming YEA events and

    spread the word with your Gen Y col-leagues.

    We are kicking offthe year with a great

    Steven James McNiff

    One of our ASHRAE members, a Past President, Mr. Steven McNiff, 53,

    passed away at the end of May, 2011. For those of us who remember Ste-

    ve, we will miss a great salesman, an Engineer, and friend. At right: Ste-

    ves picture as it appeared on the Ausn ASHRAEs August 1995 News-

    leer, the Ausn Register.

    Steven James McNiffwas born on March 31, 1958 in Tallahassee, Florida

    to Air Force Colonel Frank McNiff (deceased) and Janet McNiff. He lived in

    Colorado for many of his younger years. In 1974, while living in Colorado

    Springs, he earned his place as an Eagle Scout. Shortly thereaer, while a

    Junior in High School, he moved to San Antonio, Texas. In 1976 he gradu-

    ated from Roosevelt High School in San Antonio and entered Texas A&M University (Whoop!), where he became a

    member of the Corps of Cadets in the Spider M-2 Marine Corps Division. Steve graduated in 1980 with a Bachelor of

    Science Degree in Engineering Technology. He was an Aggie all the way, and had a great love of the outdoors, and

    especially hunng.

    Steve owned his own business for several years then decided to make a change. Steve worked for Curt Fox of Fox

    Mechanical in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He sold Energy Management Systems as well as other things at Fox

    Mechanical (now Fox Service Company). He le Fox to open the Landis & Gyr Branch for Ausn as a salesman. Ste-

    ve was known as a creave and tenacious salesman, and the early driving force in the growth of Landis & Gyr / Sie-

    mens in Central Texas. He took a lot of pride in the fact that when he started the Landis office in Ausn, it was just

    him working as a one man show.

    During his tenure at Landis & Gyr / Siemens, he captured numerous high profile customers such as Baylor University

    and the State of Texas Facilies. As the years went by and the Siemens office grew, he was responsible for guiding

    the local management philosophy of the organizaon. One of his employees, remembers him saying several mes

    if we cant do the job fully and well, then we should not bid it. Many believe his best trait as a manager was to

    find the right people to do the job, with an understanding of all their strengths and weaknesses. He mentored many

    people in the local organizaon, and at the me he le the Central Texas General Managers job with Siemens, the

    organizaon had nearly 60 employees from Waco to Brownsville.

    Steve McNiff also was the Ausn Chapter of ASHRAEs Foreth (40th) President in August for Society Year 1995-

    1996. The Chapter celebrated its Foreth Anniversary in April, 1996, during his tenure. As a dedicated member of

    the local engineering community, Steve was another ASHRAE enthusiast who spent numerous hours in the Chapter

    filling various commiee and officers posions unl reaching the Presidency. Steve worked enough posions that

    The opinions expressed herein are not necessarily those of ASHRAE and may not be reproduced without special permission of the Chapter.

    the Chapter put him up for a Chapter Service Award just this year at our Annual Chapter Regional Conference (CRC).

    Its unfortunate that the award will be made posthumously.

    Steve also made many friends throughout the years, and this author remembers him for his intelligence, sharp wit

    and humor. Many other ASHRAE members in Ausn and San Antonio were friends with Steve and he will be greatly

    missed! Those of us who knew Steve are truly blessed.

    Steve is survived by his children Steven James McNiff, Jr. and Leah Michelle McNiff, his mother Janet McNiff, and his

    brother Frank Lowell McNiff, Jr. He was preceded in death by his father Frank Lowell McNiff, Sr. and his brother Mi-

    chael Shawn McNiff.

    This author would like to thank Mr. Brian Fron, Mr. Brian Walsh, and Ms. Jenny Blasser Peterson for contribu nginformaon for this brief arcle.
