"My dad's mentality of you got to be a lifelong learner. You got to stay with the times. You're either getting better, you're either moving forward or backward, there's no such thing as standing still. That's almost a mantra inside our company. And then the idea of humble, he was a very humble guy. He was hungry, he had a good work ethic, he was smart. And I mean that in his relationship with people. His, the people work for him, the vendors, the customers, that mentality of team. So all those things that we put on the wall today, in my mind, were directly from him. And that's what we grew up around our whole life, and deviating from them, I don't think we're here today." - Tony Mazzella, CEO of Mazzella Companies
