This edition of Trucking Tributes marks the final episode hosted by Susan Patten of Wreaths Across America. Susan sits down with longtime friend and industry veteran, Don Queeney, who will join Elizabeth Bara as the new voice of the program.

Susan shares her retirement plans after National Wreaths Across America Day. She reflects on her years of conversations with drivers, coordinators, law enforcement, and volunteers who move veterans wreaths across the country.

You hear Don’s story, from early days in moving and commercial fishing in Maine to his work with Wreaths Across America and his role as former director of transportation. He explains what he learned about the mission, why the logistics matter, and how drivers view each load as an act of respect.

Susan and Don talk about the growth of participating locations across the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam, and American Samoa. They explain how volunteers, carriers, and drivers build the network that makes National Wreaths Across America Day possible.
