HDA Truck Pride and Northwood University announce Anthony R. Lewis as the 2017-18 recipient of the Heavy Duty America Fund Memorial Endowed Scholarship.
The sought-after scholarship was established to honor the memory of two important figures in the aftermarket industry, Pete Bley and Jim Burke, Sr. The annual award is directed to a Northwood University student enrolled in the dedicated Automotive Aftermarket program.
“Selecting Anthony for this prestigious scholarship was a simple decision. His enthusiasm for the industry echoes that of the gentlemen for whom the award was established,” says Don Reimondo, president and CEO of HDA Truck Pride (formerly HD America), and fellow Northwood Alum. “He personifies the ideals of this award with his work ethic and determination to succeed in the heavy-duty aftermarket. We’re honored to be a part of his Junior year at Northwood as he pursues his education.”
A junior from Commerce Township, Mich., Lewis is enrolled in the university’s Automotive Aftermarket Management program at its Midland campus. He has been active in Northwood University’s International Auto Show team for the BMW and Team Tenneco displays over the past two years. Lewis has been a member of the Dean’s List, recognizing a grade point average between 3.25 and 3.84 in a semester, and has been active in Northwood’s Go Mad Day, where hundreds of students, staff, and friends of the university engage in community service projects.
