Sebastian was inducted into the SHSAA Hall of Fame in 1999.
Mr. Circo has quite a success story to tell. Imagine starting your own company at the age of 27, at the end of World War II. In 1945, with earnings saved as a stenographer and manager for Ahlberg Bearing Company, Mr. Circo created Precision Bearing. Today, Precision Industries remains family-owned and is one of the giants in the field of industrial distribution. Not satisfied with building a thriving business, Mr. Circo organized the Priest Fund at Happy Hollow Country Club, ACED-an organization of Omaha business leaders who assist priests in their duties, and served on the Distributors Council of General Motors and SKF. Mr. Circo's generous contributions to the H.P. Smith Sports Complex provide South Omaha youngsters with clinics and special coaching during the summer months. |
