Richard E. Ford – Picture from Indiana Academy Biography

Richard Ford has been a client of Easterday Construction for the last decade and I am pleased that our business relationship has progressed to where he is counted as a family friend.  We first worked on Richard’s home in Wasbash completing some storm repairs and from there we completed several projects at his Wabash home including the addition of an endless pool, a two story music room and the remodeling/reconstruction of two guest houses.  We have completed several projects at his second home in Culver on Lake Maxinkuckee as well as his guest house here.  We are also proud to have helped with the creation of the Dr. James Ford Historic Home in Wabash for which we won a Judges Special Award from Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) of Indiana. 

Richard has won many awards for his community involvement such as being twice awarded a Sagamore of the Wabash, Indiana’s highest honor and named as a Living Legend by the Indiana Historical Society, now Indiana Landmarks.  This coming weekend he will be receiving another award from Indiana Landmarks, the Cook Cup.  We want to congratulate Richard on this latest award.  The State of Indiana, Cities of Wabash and Indianapolis, the Town of Culver and Lake Maxinkuckee have all benefited from his generous philanthropy.  We are pleased to have participated with Richard in some of these endeavors.  We wish him the best and hope to continue our friendship for many years.
