A LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT

Stokes was founded in 1944, and has been in my family since the early 1960s. When I joined in 1984, we were a two-truck service operation; now we’re at 25 trucks and counting, and the third generation of the Swaintek family is becoming more and more involved in the business.
