Jeff Buczkiewicz, President, Mason Contractors Association of America

I would like to personally Congratulate Steve Wheeler and Anna Weickhardt on their wedding this past week in Greenville, SC. Steve and Anna’s story goes back four years to the 2018 MCAA Mid-year meeting in San Antonio, TX where they first met.

On behalf of the entire MCAA family, we wish both Steve and Anna a wonderful life ahead. To many years of happiness!
