In the spring of 2014, I passed on an opportunity to apply for relocation back to my hometown of Midland, TX, due to a variety of variables. I had always told my wife that if Billy Roberson ever retired I would take a look at San Angelo based on how he built the business there. Upon learning of his passing, I made several trips to San Angelo, meeting with Bret Farris and visiting with Russ Lambros. After carefully evaluating the business opportunity, I decided to apply for relocation. The main goal, once getting to San Angelo, was to build on the legacy that Billy created and to merge what eventually proved to be at least four subsets of cultures into one culture. Those four subsets included the team members that Billy hired, those who were hired by corporate IMs, the 10+ from Arkansas who relocated, and those hired after arriving.
