As we celebrate International Women’s Day 2019, we are proud to note that McCarthy Tire Service has had strong women as part of it’s ownership team since Joseph McCarthy founded the company in 1926 with his wife, Claire Kilcoyne McCarthy. They passed the company on to their son, John “Jack” McCarthy Sr. and his wife, Cecelia “CeCe” Corgan McCarthy. Their children – Mary Ellen McCarthy Horn, Kathleen “Katie” McCarthy Lambert, and John McCarthy Jr. – joined the ownership team in the 1980s. They continue to own and operate the family business as their children, the fourth generation of McCarthys, enter management roles in the company.
