Naphis Mitchell-Reyes: Excellent Safety Professional Award - 2026

In October of 2021, MRCA lost our dear friend, respected colleague, and Board member, Naphis Mitchell-Reyes.

Those fortunate enough to have known Naphis know that he was a man who valued honor, truth and family above all else. He constantly pursued excellence in every aspect of his life and often said, “I will never stop learning.”

Loved and respected throughout the roofing industry, Naphis left a lasting impact on everyone he met. His passion for safety, leadership and genuine care for others continues to inspire the industry today.

MRCA is proud to honor his legacy through the Naphis Mitchell-Reyes Excellent Safety Professional Award. This award recognizes roofing safety professionals who exemplify the values that MRCA most respected in Naphis Mitchell-Reyes.

The recipient must demonstrate a true passion for safety, extensive knowledge and understanding of safety practices and a commitment to creating an authentic safety culture within their company or for their clients.

MRCA believes this award is special, just as Naphis was special to so many in the industry. Because of that, this award will not necessarily be presented every year, but only when a nominee truly embodies the qualities and values that Naphis shared with us all.
