Our History
Carl Reece and his partner Harold Coleman started a road construction business in 1926. They first used teams of mules to move dirt, but soon it was clear that they preferred to rely on humans! So they sold the mules, and began hiring good people—honest folks with integrity who had the skills to do the work. They kept their eyes open for labor-saving devices, inventing new tools and processes along the way.
Carl Reece ran Reece Construction as an individual enterprise until 1955. The company was incorporated and Carl’s son Bill took over as President. Bill was succeeded by his daughter Mary Lou Reece in 1990, and in 2022 Marynell Popst became the fourth generation of the Reece family to steer the company.
Four generations of honesty, integrity,
and hard work that stands the test of time
