Dolese Bros. Co.’s Mark Helm (C), was presented the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association’s Barry K. Wendt Memorial Commitment Award in Nashville. DSC Dredge’s Charlie Johnson (L) and Kristi Wendt, daughter of Barry Wendt, presented the award to Helm.

The 2024 Barry K. Wendt Memorial Commitment Award was presented to Mark Helm of Dolese Bros. Co. during the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) Annual Board and Membership Meeting.

"Mark is well-known for encouraging the long-term health of the aggregates industry through his commitment to the community," said NSSGA President and CEO Michael Johnson. "His charitable work with rural communities and efforts to promote the next generation of aggregates professionals exemplifies why he is an outstanding choice for the Barry K. Wendt Memorial Commitment Award."

Charlie Johnson, DSC Dredge LLC, presented the award to Helm in Johnson's final duty as the 2023 Manufacturers & Services Division Chair. Barry Wendt's daughter, Kristi Wendt, also was on hand to present the award.

The NSSGA's Manufacturers & Services Division established the award in 1998 to annually recognize an individual in the industry who exhibits the dedication exemplified by Barry Wendt, both in commitment to the industry and the community in which they live. This award is the most distinguished individual award presented by the NSSGA.

"I am honored to accept this award as a reflection of Dolese Bros.' strong commitment to our community," said Mark Helm, president and CEO of Dolese Bros Co. "Thank you to NSSGA and Kristi Wendt, for carrying on Barry Wendt's legacy and his tireless devotion to serving others and advancing the industry."

Helm's experience spans more than 40 years in construction and aggregates with both public and private organizations. He joined Dolese Bros. Co. in 2001. Helm also is a commissioner on the Oklahoma Mining Commission and serves on several boards, including the Oklahoma Aggregates Association, United Way of Oklahoma and the Oklahoma Nature Conservancy. He also is a Trustee on Foundations for Engineering at Oklahoma State University, the University of Oklahoma and Kansas State University.
