February 2009
To the beekeeping industry:
In 1979, I got involved with Western Bee Supplies, Inc. and during this time I have met hundreds upon hundreds of beekeepers who not only have been very valued customers, but in many cases, have become friends for life. As I approach retirement, it's time to turn the operation over to my two fine sons - Rick and Tim - who will lead the charge of supplying the beekeeping industry with the FINEST QUALITY woodenware made in the USA.
It has been my pleasure to serve you and the industry - and in the years to come, I hope I take the opportunity to travel across this beautiful country and don't be surprised if I come driving down your lane someday just to say "hello" and visit for awhile.
I would like to wish each beekeeper the very best in production of honey and in pollination - may our industry continue to grow.
God bless you all!!
Best wishes,
Dick Molenda
