R.F. MacDonald Co. was founded in 1956 and now has 270 employees. We service and sell boilers, pumps, composites and accessories for commercial and industrial applications. Our employees are full-time mechanical engineers, sales engineers, long-time parts salespeople and field service personnel.

R.F. MacDonald Co. will continue to be the leader in market share, sales volume, technological innovation and service capabilities for the mutual benefit of our company, employees, customers and principal suppliers in the markets that we serve. We will continue to pursue these goals through integrity and persistence.

An objective for all of us in life is to potentially leave a part of ourselves as we depart this life for another. There are many adjectives that can be used to describe our founder Bob MacDonald but perhaps none more appropriate than ‘persistent.’
 
From Bob’s personal desk to the growth of our ten-office company, and ultimately his fight with cancer, persistence was his unwavering theme. In the memory of our founder may these words by Calvin Coolidge be an inspiration to you.
 
 

Persistence – A Quote by Calvin Coolidge

Nothing in the world
can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not;
nothing is more common than
unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not;
unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not;
The world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination
alone are omnipotent.
The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved
and always will solve
the problems of
the human race.
