CVSN to Honor the Late John Bzeta with President’s Award

CVSN to Honor the Late John Bzeta with President’s Award

This year's Children’s Charity Auction also to be renamed the “John Bzeta Memorial Children’s Charity Auction."

The Commercial Vehicle Solutions Network (CVSN) leadership has announced that the late John Bzeta of Fleet Brake Parts and Service in Alberta, Canada, has been named the recipient of the 2022 President’s Award. Bzeta was a CVSN member and served on the CVSN board for many years. “He was a true gentleman and influencer in our industry,” CVSN said in announcing the posthumous award.

Bzeta also was a longtime member and board member of the HDA Truck Pride marketing group.

The award will be presented to John’s wife Michelle Bzeta and their children Jackson, Ava and Matthew, at the annual CVSN Aftermarket Distribution Summit on June 6 at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Truckee (Lake Tahoe), California. The dates for the CVSN Summit are June 4-8. 

Building on the very successful Alberta Children’s Hospital Charity Auction at the 2019 Summit in Banff, Alberta, (the last CVSN in person Summit due to COVID), the Children’s Charity Auction at this year’s event will be renamed the “John Bzeta Memorial Children’s Charity Auction” with all proceeds going to one of John’s favorite charities, JUMPSTART. This will be the name of the event for all future Summits to support children’s charities.

Do you speak spark plug? Most part numbers are a meaningless series of numbers and letters. But spark plugs have a language on the side of the box that can tell you what’s inside. Like any other language, there are dialects.

The nomenclature of spark plug part numbers can tell you everything from size (diameter and reach) to what materials are on the center and ground electrode. Like learning a new language, knowing how to translate spark plug numbers can open up a new way to inventory and sell spark plugs for counter professionals.
