Steve
Thum –
Steve has been chosen for quality champion
for many reasons. His dependability and flexibility is exemplary.
One example of this was during one of the winter’s biggest
storms, Steve was not able to get his vehicle out of the driveway
so he walked most of the way to assure his job was done. Steve
general demeanor when working on the units is always a positive
influence to both staff and clients.
