ABOUT US

About Rite-Way Black & Deburr

Cecil Wallace Parker, a Korean War veteran, took a job with Commercial Induction Heat Treating in 1959. While working this job, Cecil got the idea of owning a black oxide company in Dayton, OH, and in 1973 he made that dream a reality and founded Rite-Way Black & Deburr.

In Business for More Than 40 Years

Rite-Way Black & Deburr flourished under Cecil for 34 years. In his last years, Cecil was striken with cancer, and he put his children in charge of his company. Cecil Wallace Parker passed away January 22, 2007. After his passing, Rite-Way Black & Deburr transferred to his children, Diana and James. James Parker passed away September, 2008, leaving the company to his sister Diana, who still runs it today with her husband Mike Spencer.

A Lasting Impact on the Community

While alive, Cecil helped start Winston Heat Treating. When Rite-Way Black & Deburr was located on Crane Avenue, Certified Heat Treat started business. Bill Webb of Certified Heat Treat was a good friend of Cecil’s, and they had known each other since their days working at Commercial Induction heat Treat.  

Cecil Parker made a large impact on the Dayton, OH area’s metal finishing industry, and Rite-Way Black & Deburr.
