For many years, David has been an instrumental contributor to both the NPDA and the Nevada propane industry as a whole. David began his propane career in 1972 as a welder/fabricator for Pacific Gas Equipment Company, which was purchased by AmeriGas in 1987. In 1975, he moved to the retail side of the business and over the next 28 years, he held every job retail has to offer, including driver, district manager, area manager and corporate development. In 2000, he had the opportunity to move to Nevada to work all of the AmeriGas locations as an area sales manager. After being recruited by Bud Wolf to join the NPDA, David became actively involved in the Association serving as the NPDA president, vice president, secretary/treasurer, district director and conference chairman. In 2012, he relocated to Washington State to help with the merger in the Northwest and continue as an area sales manager for the Northwest and Alaska. David s entire 45 year tenure in the industry has been with one company and he will be retiring from AmeriGas on March 1, 2018. Please join us as we present David with the 2017 Hall of Flame Award on the evening of September 7th at the Edgewood Country Club. Overlooking the serene setting of Lake Tahoe, the evening promises to be memorable as we enjoy dinner and dancing all while enjoying the company of fellow propane industry members from across Nevada and our neighboring western states.
