Krissy and Richard Hitewshew of
Vallejo's A-1 Guaranteed Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. were among nine
Solano County businesses honored at the recent 17th annual Spirit of Solano
luncheon. The firm was chosen for the award by the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce.
Selected by the various Solano County Chambers of Commerce for their
outstanding spirit and community support, this year's recipients included Dennie
Geltzs and Frances Hurley of Printer Concepts Technology of Benicia and
Vacaville's Gary Passama of NorthBay Healthcare, selected by their cities'
chambers.
The Dixon chamber selected Dorothy Luedke and Cher Besneatte of Curves of
Dixon, while the Fairfield-Suisun chamber chose Pat Holzwarth of Delta Graphics
and Sohail Tabar, of Ford Lincoln Fairfield.
Omar Enrique Martinez Zerbato of Martinez Multi Services, received the
Filipino-American chamber's nod, while the Hispanic chamber chose Marisela
Barbosa of Monarch Engineers and K. Patrice Williams of 123 Target Marketing,
was the Solano Black Chamber's choice.
The Spirit of Solano is hosted by Westamerica Bank and the Solano Economic
Development Corporation. Last week's awards program in Fairfield was designed to
recognize the role chambers of commerce play in economic development and honor
those businesses that take an active part in improving the communities they
serve.
