Firm was bought by US rival in 2019
The White Young Green name has finally disappeared nearly 60 years after being set up and 18 months after the firm was snapped up by US rival Tetra Tech for £43m.
The firm was started in Leeds in 1960 by Ernest Green later merging with White Young, set up four years later by Terence White and Ron Young, before eventually rebranding as WYG in 2008.
It was bought in summer 2019 by California-based Tetra Tech, listed on the US stock exchange and which had revenues of $3.1bn (£2.3bn) in 2019.
The firm, which has its headquarters (pictured) in Leeds, has 2,000 employees in the UK with Tetra Tech employing 20,000 across the globe.
KANKAKEE â Former Kankakee Fire Chief David St. John, a member of the department for nearly 30 years, died early Monday following a short battle with cancer.
St. John was the city fire chief from May 1993 through June 1996. When he retired from the department in 1996, he concluded a 27-year career. St. John was 75.
Funeral services are pending at the Jenson Funeral Home.
St. John was appointed chief when Mayor Donald Green took office in 1993.
He was also known as someone who wore his emotions on his sleeve and as someone who was entirely devoted to the fire service.
âFire service was his life,â his daughter, Sheri Schimisek said Monday. âIt was absolutely his life. He lived, ate and drank fire service. It was his true passion.â
