We had a very important and dedicated employee get hit today. Not just a employee but a good friend someone who was always there when you asked him for help. Someone who is known by many as a friend, son, and a father.

 

Everyone please keep him, his family, and friends in your heart and prayers. I know we have all heard of people getting hit but it never hits you until it happens to someone that you know.

 

We all have got to come together and start paying more attention to our surroundings when we are out driving day to day. If you see lights regards if they are red, blue, or amber please slow down and move over. Because we all have family’s, we all have friends and you never know what can happen.

 

Trucks can be replaced but people can’t. Please keep him and his loved ones in your prayers and please slow down and move over.

Our thoughts and prayers go out that operator and his family. PLEASE also keep in your thoughts and prayers all the tow operators that came home safe today and that they will be safe tonight AND tomorrow. Please watch your back, your front, your side and whatever else it takes, just come home safe.

 

SLOW DOWN MOVE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can only imagine the mental stresses he, his family, and Jacob's Towing are having. Christine and I send to Todd our prayers and support wishing him a full and speedy recovery. And, that includes him having the intestinal fortitude to return to work if that's his and his family's decision.   R.
