It’s never easy to say goodbye to someone in your life. Unfortunately, for the Beverage Industry family, we have been forced to do so with the recent passing of trucks and transportation columnist Tom Kelley.

Tom officially joined the Beverage Industry team in 2013 following the departure of previous trucking and transportation columnist David Kolman.

He showcased an ability to balance the historical challenges of beverage fleets with today’s modern marvels.
