Thanksgiving 2016

Today is a day set aside to reflect and give thanks for the blessings of life. We are as a nation very blessed, and there is much to be thankful for. As you reflect on life today my guess is that there are freedoms, places, faces and names which come to mind quickly. Today is a day to cherish these blessings in our life and even verbalize our thanks.


  • I am personally very thankful for my family and friends. Life is best spent with people who care for you and want to see you succeed. It is a tremendous blessing to have people in our lives who care. 
  • I am thankful for the freedoms I enjoy every day as an American citizen. These freedoms had and continue to have a very high cost. I am grateful beyond words for this blessing.
  • I am thankful for the team members that I work with day in and day out. FirstFleet is made of wonderful people who are dedicated to doing the best job they can. May we never take this for granted. 

I realize that in our industry most of you reading this may find yourselves in a less than traditional setting or time for your Thanksgiving dinner. The life of a transportation professional is always on the go, and I thank you for your service and dedication. Wherever you find yourself today it is my hope that you are able to pause and reflect on the blessings in your life. There is much to be thankful for.

What about you... what are you thankful for? Will you consider sharing on our Facebook timeline one thing that you are thankful for today? If you need a little laughter and encouragement check out this Thankful video from Kid President.
