Summer 2020 is one to remember! Apex Steel Pipe was privileged enough to have “The Cone Heads” intern for the summer. Throughout the summer they were tasked with cold callings, marketing, cleaning databases, presentations, as well as learning life lessons and skills. They are bright young men that will be attending their respective Universities this fall, hopefully with some more knowledge than they started the summer with. We’d like to thank the Cone Heads for all their hard work throughout the summer.
And without further a due we would like to present the Cones:

This first picture represents the moment my life really began. Dec 31st, 1999 Big Wells, Texas. Engaged to Marilyn Hayes at midnight. Pay no attention to the fire behind me and pretty much any other stuff that happened in my life before this picture. My real life began with Marilyn that night.
The second picture represents our life’s work. Like everyone, we are trying to raise our children as best we can. Cute Picture right? Fast forward 10 years and these teenage years are killing us!!!!
The reflection in the first picture ( The old guy) represents now. Ouch! But I learned enough about life to know this ‘You make enough people mad doing what is right in our business, you can’t afford to do something wrong.’
Your business is important to us!

These three holligans in the picture above, my sons, have been the joy of my life to raise and watch grow from babies to children to young men. It hasn’t always been easy, but life sure would have been boring without them. Excited to see what they decide to become.
And so, 25 years after the first picture, we are still laughing and loving life. Can’t wait to see what the next 25 years bring.

Matt Paradeaux joined Apex Steel Pipe in 2017. Matt was born in Uvalde, TX and raised in Crosby, TX.
After years of chasing my dream as a golf professional, and having recently won an award for Top Ten golf Instructors in Houston, Matt was sure that he was heading down the right career path until Hurricane Harvey came along and closed Cypresswood golf clubs doors.
Immediately after what he thought was one of the worst things that could happen, a new road led him to Apex Steel Pipe and it has been the definition of a blessing in disguise. His passions are family and his obsession with customer service. Matt’s wife stands behind him no matter what with two beautiful young daughters who enjoy Hitting golf balls and going to the movies with Daddy.

“Happiness depends upon ourselves..”
She is from Richmond, TX and graduated from Texas State University with a bachelors degree in Communications.
Jessica and her husband Ryan married March of 2016.
This year they are expecting their first child est. Aug. 9th 2017.
Jessica takes care of Apex from ‘trying to keep all the guys in the office in line’ to all office needs, accounting, marketing, and sales.
What a pleasure it has been to join my brothers, Scott and Rob, at Apex. Our goal is to supply our customers with the best service possible.
My business journey began with a business degree from William Woods College in Fulton, MO. It was there that I had the privilege of being a Chi Omega and a little sister of the Sigma Chi fraternity.
Supporting animal rescue has always been huge for me. During the Christmas season I have an Etsy shop where I monogram stockings for dogs, cats and horses and the people who love them. A portion of the sales goes to animal rescue.
The pictures are of my loves: my family, my husband, Ric, my son, Scotty (whose first job was in the pipe yard), and my dog, Rambo, waiting to be served Christmas dinner.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you.
