MELBOURNE, Fla., Sept. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate
National Truck Driver Appreciation Week (September 10-16), Fleet Clean announced today it
has selected three drivers from its local business partners as the
recipients of an all-inclusive trip for two to Las Vegas on future dates to be
determined.
Nominated by representatives from each company, the winners of
the giveaway are Alan Hale
(K.L. Breeden & Sons –
Daytona Beach, Fla.),
Ken McNemee (Gary Amoth
Trucking – Twin Falls, Idaho) and
Benny Pugh (Reinhart
Foodservice – Johnson City,
Tenn.).
"We wanted to do something a little different for Truck Driver
Appreciation Week this year, and what better way than to give these
three drivers a break from their busy lives than a getaway to one
of America's most famous hotspots," said Scott Marr, CEO and Founder of Fleet Clean. "We
are thrilled to give Ken, Alan and Benny this chance and thank them
wholeheartedly for their years of hard work and dedication."
McNemee, Hale and Pugh are all veterans of the trucking industry
and each have inspired both their companies and Fleet Clean over
the course of their years of service.
- Alan Hale, the 2015 Truck
Driver of the Year for K.L. Breeden
& Sons, has been driving a commercial vehicle for more than 30
years, landing his first position in 1986. A resident of
Belleview, Fla., Hale and his
wife, Missy, have been married for nearly 27 years and have four
children. In 1999, the family suffered a devastating house fire
that engulfed the entire property in flames. Displaced for months,
Hale and his family have had the chore of rebuilding their home on
the same property for most of their years, all while he continued
to work tirelessly for the Daytona
Beach trucking company. Today, Hale and Missy have several
grandchildren and he makes a concerted effort to safely deliver
products to people all across Tallahassee, Fla., on a daily basis.
- Ken McNemee has worked
with Gary Amoth Trucking since September
2002, recently celebrating his 15th anniversary with the
company. One of Gary Amoth's longest
tenured employees, McNemee is an asset to the company and takes
pride in mentoring younger truck drivers and helping them learn the
tricks of the trade, all while working countless hours to get a job
done. McNemee was diagnosed with stage four cancer three years ago
and was forced to endure rigorous chemotherapy and radiation
treatments. While continuing his fight against cancer, McNemee was
forced to miss some time at work but returned with a vengeance when
he was deemed healthy enough to work again. Today, McNemee is still
fighting cancer every hour of the day and works as much as he can
around his treatments. He remains one of the most committed,
dedicated, selfless drivers in the Gary Amoth Trucking system.
- Benny Pugh is the longest
tenured driver at the Johnson City Reinhart Foodservice operation,
first signing on with the company in October
1985. A well-respected driver around the company, both with
executives and with his peers, Pugh mentors younger drivers and
serves as an inspiration to many within the company for his
unbridled dedication to the business that he has called home for
more than three decades. Recently sidelined with a medical
condition, Pugh remains committed to his craft and works tirelessly
to improve service deliver goods all across Tennessee and beyond.
"We could not be more thankful for Fleet Clean and what they are
doing for our amazing drivers," Aaron
Rice (Reinhart Foodservice), David
Whaley (Gary Amoth Trucking) and Kevin Bartley (K.L. Breeden & Sons) said in
a joint statement. "Alan, Ken and Benny are inspiring individuals
who deserve nothing but the best in this world. This trip to
Las Vegas is a small thank you for
their years of dedication and service."
The Melbourne, Florida-based
Fleet Clean operation will cover all expenses of the trips to
Las Vegas, including hotel, flight
and food accommodation. For more information on the mobile trucking
