A Legacy of Leadership: Russell Nash Retirement Announcement

After 50 years of dedicated service, we bid farewell to a cornerstone of our organization.

It is with mixed emotions that we announce the retirement of Russell Nash, our esteemed Division President, effective June 30, 2025. Russell’s departure marks the end of an extraordinary chapter in our company’s history, one defined by visionary leadership, dedication, and remarkable growth.

All In The Family

The story of William R. Nash, LLC. begins as a true family enterprise. Founded by William R. Nash, Russell’s father, the company was initially guided by the founder and his brothers—the first generation that established our reputation for excellence and integrity within the industry. This foundation would prove essential as the second generation, including Russell and his brothers Bill and Michael Nash, took up the mantle to honor their father’s legacy and propel the business to new heights. Together, this second generation worked tirelessly to preserve the core values instilled by their father while adapting to an ever-changing industry landscape. Their combined efforts ensured not only the survival but the continued success of the family business through decades of economic fluctuations and market evolution.

From Material Expediter to Division President

Russell’s journey with the company began in 1975 when he joined as a Material Expediter. Through determination and commitment to the organization, Russell steadily advanced through the ranks, culminating in his appointment as President/CEO in 2009.

In 2020, Russell became the Division President at William R. Nash, LLC. Following the acquisition by HB Mechanical Group, a significant transition occurred as Russell’s brothers moved into retirement. Russell stepped into the position to facilitate carrying the company forward. Since taking the helm during this transition, William R. Nash, LLC. has realized impressive growth while continuing to honor the foundational values that have always been the company’s north star. His leadership continues to build upon the family’s remarkable legacy while propelling the future path for the business.
