Ok Great Idea..
Senior without fail would be Terry and Rene..
I have witnessed everyone at their best and worst but with Terry you would never know.
He is the consummate expediter..
Alpha-Omega
Short stop would be Lucas and Tammy Wells best friends, associates and advisors...
I only hope that anyone trying expedite be so fortunate to click with like minded folk.

Bill Blodgett,the man that started the expediting in a nut shell,when he opened Roberts Express in 1979.If it wasnt for Mr blodgett,dont think none of us would know about expediting

How about Bill Yost from Roberts days.

While I never had the pleasure of knowing the last two people on Geo's list, I would support them 100%, because the last three are folks I have met, and they are THAT good. I'd also nominate Dave & Grace Corfman, because they are the kind of people we could use a lot more of in this business.
Great idea, Geo!

Exactly what Cheri said! Do not know the last two people on the original list. I do agree with adding Dave to the list also, he has and continues to do a lot and be there for all of us.
