A Tribute to Mark J. Byerley, Sr.
The entire Torbanz Coating Services family joins AMPP and the global corrosion control community in mourning the passing of Mark J. Byerley, Sr.
Mark was more than an industry leader—he was a mentor, a visionary, and a passionate advocate for corrosion prevention and protective coatings. His lifelong commitment to advancing the profession, strengthening AMPP, and serving others has left an enduring legacy that will continue to inspire coating inspectors, engineers, and painting professionals around the world.
His leadership, humility, and dedication remind us that true greatness is measured not only by achievements but also by the lives we touch and the standards we leave behind.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, the entire Tinker & Rasor team, and the global AMPP community during this difficult time.
Rest in peace, Mark J. Byerley, Sr. Your legacy will continue to protect the future of our industry.
