NPMA is sad to announce the recent passing of Margie Beckham Sapp. Margie founded Florida Pest Control with her late husband, Dempsey, in 1949, which grew to become one of the largest independently-owned pest control companies in the U.S. before being acquired by Rentokil in 2019. Margie was an active member of NPMA and remained involved with her company well into her nineties.
