Webstone President Michael Reck died on December 24, 2015.

February 25, 2016

Webstone Co. President Michael Reck died on December 24, 2015, after a brief but powerful battle with an aggressive form of cancer. His journey in life as husband, father, brother, friend and leader was one of love, compassion and integrity.

Reck’s highly successful career led him to Webstone in the 1990s. He then decided to purchase the company in 1999. Together with Executive Vice President Fernando Mireles, they created a new vision for what was to become “Webstone Innovation”. Under this leadership, Webstone became known for strategic product development; designing of some of the industry’s most innovative products and securing numerous patents. Today, many of the most commonly used products in hydronic and plumbing systems are a result of that growth and innovation.

Reck was involved in many charitable organizations, neighborhood groups and industry causes. Until a suitable replacement is appointed, Webstone will continue operation by its senior management team.
