Today, we’re raising a big cheers to Ken Rinear as he celebrates an incredible 19 years with Keystone Sales & Associates! 👏
Nineteen years ago, Keystone Sales & Associates acquired Rinear Associates, marking an exciting new chapter for our company. Along with that acquisition came Ken and his brother, Steve. Two incredible additions to the Keystone family who brought with them countless years of experience, relationships, and knowledge of the industry.
Ken’s roots in the commercial plumbing industry run especially deep. Through Rinear & Associates, he brought to Keystone decades of expertise in the commercial plumbing space, along with a longstanding relationship representing Bradley Corporation that dates back to 1954. That history, spanning more than 50 years before joining Keystone, speaks to the relationships, trust, and industry knowledge Ken has carried throughout his career, which he continued to build upon during his 19 years with our team.
Milestones like this are especially meaningful because they represent so much more than the number of years. They represent the relationships built, the knowledge shared, the challenges overcome, and the growth experienced together along the way.
Ken, thank you for 19 years of hard work, loyalty, and dedication to Keystone. We are incredibly grateful for everything you have contributed to our company and proud to have you as such an important part of the Keystone family.
Cheers to 19 years, Ken, and to the lasting impact you’ve made on Team Keystone! 🥂
