Walter Kolodziej, since November of 1976, had been expertly representing Portland Stone Ware’s products throughout the New England and Mid-Atlantic states as a Sales Representative.
Vicki Zimmerschied came on board in September 1980 as Director of Purchasing.
Both Walter and Vicki have dedicated their lives to the growth of Portland Stone Ware for which we will be forever grateful. They are not just employees, they are considered part of the family and will be sorely missed. We wish them the very best in their new journey of retirement!
On their last day, Ken Johnson, a friend and long-term truck driver with Portland Stone Ware, presented both Walter and Vicki with hand-crafted and hand-painted clocks depicting a clipper ship that represented vessels that used to travel between Portland, ME and Boston, MA transporting product for Portland Stone Ware.
