Trigard will continue under the leadership of Ethan Darby, Chief Marketing Officer, and Ross Darby, Chief Operating Officer, who were both owners alongside Darby-Dowers prior to her retirement.
“Trigard has a strong foundation, an exceptional team, and a clear vision for the future,” said Ethan Darby. “We are excited about what lies ahead and remain focused on providing the level of quality and service our network of valued dealers has come to expect from Trigard.”
While retiring from her day-to-day role, Darby-Dowers leaves behind a lasting legacy shaped by dedication to the company’s values, its employees, and relationships built throughout the industry. She will continue to serve as a board member.
