Hoekstra Transportation Announces Driver of the Year 2006

St. Anne, Ill. — Hoekstra Transportation recently honored Ron Leoni as Driver of the Year for 2006. Ron came to Hoekstra in 2005 with a background in the transportation business. Since that time, Ron’s positive attitude and focus on safety has earned him recognition as Hoekstra’s 2006 Driver of the Year.

Ron received the award during the awards ceremony at Hoekstra’s Christmas party, a festive annual event for drivers and their families involving Christmas dinner, door prizes and gifts from Santa for their children and grandchildren. “I never would have thought it would be me!” he said.

Described by his coworkers as a humble, hardworking man, Ron is known for responding to compliments by saying, “I’m just doing my job.”

His driver manager, Mike Sayers, said, “Ron Leoni is a great driver to work with. He is flexible and willing to go the extra mile. Ron shows his dedication and drives to be the best, all while showing concern for safety and having the ability to change to the customer’s needs. I appreciate and look forward to working with Ron in the New Year.”

During his career with Hoekstra Transportation, Ron has driven over 200,000 accident-free miles. When Ron isn’t driving, he spends time with his wife, Cindy, and enjoys fishing, hunting, shooting and NASCAR.

Hoekstra congratulates Ron on a job well done.
