    Mill Steel Mourns Loss of Former Chairman David Samrick

    Written by Tim Triplett


    David Samrick, former CEO and chairman of Mill Steel Co., died peacefully May 14 surrounded by his family.

    Samrick’s career in the family service center business began in 1965 at age 19. With his aptitude for leadership and keen business insight, he was promoted to president in 1976, then CEO and chairman in 1985. Alongside his fellow partners, Samrick led the company in double-digit growth for over five decades until recently transitioning the role of chairman to his niece and founder Harry Samrick’s granddaughter, Pam Heglund.
