Simmons & Bedzzz Express aid tornado victims

Atlanta-based Simmons Bedding Co. and Birmingham, Ala.-based sleep shop chain Bedzzz Express donated new ComforPedic memory foam mattresses to Alabama families affected by tornadoes earlier this year. The companies held an event at the Christian Services Mission in Birmingham on Oct. 11 to distribute beds to families in the process of rebuilding and moving back into their homes. Ed Sanders, host of ABC-TV’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” assisted Scott Smalling, president of Simmons’ Specialty Sleep division, with distributing the beds.
