Dick Jacobson attended the event as well. The inductees were brought to Des Moines for the banquet accompanied by their spouses.
“To be associated with seven of the ‘best of the best’ on the road is truly an honor,” said Steve Bourne. “These individuals, these people, are true examples of integrity, and the Jacobson spirit.”
Each member was also presented with a placard for their truck designating them as a member of this exclusive group, signifying to the motoring public that they are among the elite on the road.
“These individuals are deeply engrained into the Jacobson
fabric, and exemplify what it means to be a loyal representative of
the organization as well as a true professional truck driver,
holding safety in its highest regard,” Bourne added.
