Mark Urban, fourth generation owner, started working for Midwestern Propane at the age of 16 and has held multiple positions within the company. Darrell & Don Urban were the beloved third generation owners of Midwestern Propane Gas Company. Mark's great-grandparents and founders, A.J. and Martha Urban, opened offices in downtown Belleville in 1936, selling butane, a new energy fuel for cooking and heating, to customers from Cairo to Chicago.

Mark was honored to initiate and purchase Hearthside Grill & Fireplace Ltd. from his uncle's idea of a retail specialty store to compliment the propane endeavor!
Midwestern and Hearthside occupy the same building at 418 South Belt East just east of the Belleville fairgrounds.
