“Bob is one of the most outstanding people you’ll ever meet, and his commitment to delivering exceptional service is unmatched,” said Kevin Miller, Vice President of Operations at Wheaton | Bekins. “We had a customer not long ago tell us Bob had not only done an amazing job caring for their belongings but also went out of his way to bring the customers breakfast on their last load day. That’s the mark of a man who cares, and it’s not easy to find that kind of person.”
