Tony owned and operated his family’s business, Davis Painting and Flooring, with his father until 2017, when he sold the company to Wright Industrial Group. Unlike many owners who would have stepped away at that point, Tony stayed on. He believed in the vision Steve Wright had for the Industrial Group, but more importantly, he cared deeply about his employees.

Known for his wisdom, quick wit, and unforgettable stories, Tony has been an inspiration to everyone around him. His retirement celebration included a prayer and moving words from Chaplain Jeff Spry, followed by heartfelt stories shared by Steve Wright and WIG President Lukas Salyer about Tony’s generous spirit and lasting impact. Tony closed the evening by thanking his crew—calling each member by name—for their dedication and hard work through the years.
