Big Rig Showcase

The memorial sign honoring JR Schleuger was sold in our live auction and the support shown was incredible. The sign was first purchased by LL&E Warehousing, who then gave it back to auction it a second time and ultimately found its home with J&J Ready Mix. We also auctioned off a legacy of a lifetime sweatshirt that was purchased by an anonymous donor.

Together, these items raised an amazing $2,500 in JR’s memory. On top of that, we have another anonymous donor adding another $500, bringing the total donation to $3,000 for the Lifetime Lug Nut Covers Cancer Kickback Program.

We couldn’t be happier with the generosity shown by our awesome donors and everyone who participated. What started as a way to honor JR turned into something truly special that will help others facing their own battles.

We will proudly present the check to Lifetime Nut Covers at the No Coast Large Cars Truck Show on Labor Day weekend.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who donated, bid, supported, and helped make this possible. We couldn’t be more grateful.
