The American Concrete Pavement Association has announced the winners of its Distinguished Service Awards, which recognize contributions by people in the concrete industry and top projects.
ACPA recast its honorary life membership and named it in honor of Leet “Ed” Denton, retired president of Denton Enterprises of St. Clair Shores, Michigan. Denton also became the first recipient of the namesake membership category.
Denton has dedicated more than 50 years to the association, providing hard work, creativity and innovation. He was also this year’s recipient of the ACPA’s Hartmann-Hirschman-Egan Award.
The honorary life membership is presented to individuals who are retiring or have retired from ACPA member companies and have demonstrated commitment and compassion for the industry and ACPA. Nominations are made by current members of the board of directors.
Along with Denton, Peter Deem, retired from Holcim, received this award for his distinguished career and dedicated service to ACPA. He collaborated with ACPA contractors to build the association and expand its scope and effectiveness, the association says.
