Employee of the Quarter – 1Q23

Today we honor one who doesn’t always seek the public’s view,
But the work that’s done is important to me and to you.

You could be thinking upon a first meeting, I’ve seen her before somewhere, Maybe a ways back when you paid your Uber driver fare!

So quickly she learned a great many things like a champ;
Logbooks, the lingo and navigating CAMP.

She operates behind the scenes to keep things going,
Offering motivation, maybe without even knowing.

“She’s like the shop Mom” a coworker says,
Join me in congratulating Sandra Alvarez!


Congratulations to Sandra Alvarez – Loyd’s Aviation Employee of the Quarter.

Employee of the Quarter – 4Q21

Sometimes the best surprises just walk through the door,
When you know not what to expect, nor what is in store.

Such was the case, when what to our wondering eyes did appear?
Talent and smarts, wrapped all up in cheer.

Without a lot of chatter, though lively and quick,
Working diligently down to that last static wick.

On Cessna, On Piper, On Cirrus, On Beechcraft;
Proficient in work, from stringer to crankshaft.

Content when the props are all hung with care,
Us pilots are thankful that her work was there.

We’re better together, that we know is true,
But even more so, with Ellen here too!

Employee of the Quarter – 3Q21

It’s a storied life for our equipment and machines,Driven hard and often used, they keep us moving on the FBO scene.

Tugs and GPUs, used over and over, again and again,But even a fuel truck needs some love, every now and then.

Thankfully we have one, who speaks the language of Lektro and Hobart,To put them back together, if they were to ever fall apart.

The things we all use, to do our job well,Is exactly the place where his services excel.

So while it may seem that we’ve never had this much stuff break,We’re thankful to Edgar, who keeps things running for all of our sake.

Employee of the Quarter – 2Q21

Every now and then, and once in a while;
Something unintended happens to make you smile.

In a world of late, with too much doubt and fear;
A cloud moves by, and a bright spot begins to appear.

When those that were relied upon were suddenly not there;
This one stepped up with strength and courage that is sometimes rare.

With a great attitude akin to those good ‘ol folks;
He contributed even more, all the while telling his jokes.

With perfection in his heart, there’s no hill he won’t climb;
He can even rebuild a tug in just six month’s time.

So join me in thanking one that stands out from the crowd.
Andres is his name, who makes us all proud.

Congratulations to Andres Delgado – Loyd’s Aviation Employee of The Quarter.
