PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Nancy Cummins

W

hat a great Expo -- Congratulations to the MPMCA Staff, Executive Director Cynthia Maher, and Administrative Assistant Sharon Bianchi for the tremendous work they put in to making it so successful. This was the first year of our new MPMCA Expo App, we had tremendous interest in the App and look forward to expanding it for next year’s 2016 Expo on March 16. Look for it to join in the games and win prizes. We sold out all the booths, and even with the icy weather, had an excellent turn-out! We live in a continuously changing industry. This demands that as professionals we must always grow and adapt to what is happening in the industry. The Expo was a great way to do so. Learning about new products and tools adds to our arsenal of knowledge to help us to be better contractors. We hope you enjoyed it. Let the office know if there are changes or additions you would like to see us make for next year’s Expo. In the pages of this magazine you will see a tribute to Louis Boone. He and Robert Darr founded Boone & Darr over sixty years ago. Louie passed away in January and he and Bob, who passed away last year, left behind a legacy to be proud of. Louie was a vital member of the Greater MI PMC and supportive of the MPMCA. Especially poignant is the tribute from the current President of Boone & Darr, Jeffrey Darr. Take a moment and read the articles, and remember what we can mean to our Industry. Thank you to all who help make our MPMCA an organization we can be proud of. I look forward to seeing you at our summer meeting.

MCA Detroit

MACOMB MECHANICAL In 1970, three men drafted a plan to work together and founded Macomb Mechanical Company. The main focus of their business was to provide plumbing services to schools, churches and manufacturing facilities located in Southeastern Michigan. Macomb Mechanical has been a partner with MPMCA and has supported the contractors association in every way possible. For Macomb Mechanical, growth has taken many forms over the past decade. Beginning with moving the operations and headquarters in 2007 from their Fraser, Michigan location, to a newly remodeled 22,000 square foot, state of the art facility located in Sterling Heights. The new facility has provided for improved warehousing, sheet metal fabrication, certified welding operations, and pipe fabrication in a climate controlled environment. Since 2009, Macomb Mechanical has merged, purchased and partnered its [ 30 ]

way to what it is today. They are now a full service Plumbing, Piping, HVAC, and Fire Protection company offering all aspects of each division from designbuild installation through service. At its helm, Scott, John and Gary Johnson, utilize the teachings of their father Gary Sr., and take great pride in the long history of ethical leadership. They believe that for generations their clients, employees and the larger community have been able to count on Macomb Mechanical and the implications and context of the decisions they make. Macomb Mechanical as a community of talented and dedicated women and men who are inspired by a mission that strives for a standard of excellence. Using ethical values as a guide, they constantly examine new ways to improve and deliver the services they provide embracing the responsibility to train the next gen-

eration of technicians and leaders. In further recognition of their humble commitment to the Detroit community at large, Macomb Mechanical recently stepped up when a resident in need approached MCA Detroit asking for help. MCA Detroit received a call from an individual who was living with her 92 year old father in a home whose boiler had broken down with the strain of the cold. She had applied to other sources for assistance, but since her monthly payments were all current, she didn’t qualify for financial aid and didn’t have the resources to purchase a new heating system. Macomb Mechanical agreed to go out and look at the problem and realized the boiler system and piping were in need of replacement, not just repair. They coordinated with MCA Detroit and this fortunate Detroit resident received a new system thru Macomb Mechanical at no charge!
