NINE DALLAS AIR SERV EMPLOYEES INDUCTED
INTO 110 PERCENT CLUB AT CEREMONY

DALLAS - Nine employees of Air Serv Corporation who work at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, were inducted into the company's 110 Percent Club at a ceremony on December 13. Thirty people, including award winners and customers from Delta and Northwest Airlines, attended the lunch banquet at the Saltgrass Steakhouse.

Dan Di Giusto, Air Serv's President & COO, told the gathering, "We're here to say thank you 365

times for 365 days of service. Without you, there's not an Air Serv. It's the partnership of you working together with our clients, airport authorities and management that makes this a great company."

General Manager John Gonzales said, "The contributions of the people you see here today are what keeps us going. Their dependability and customer service above and beyond the call of duty has earned them recognition from both passengers and clients."

The airlines donated some fun giveaways, such as golf shirts and free lunches. A reporter from DFW People , the airport's newspaper, attended the event and published an article and photograph about the winners.

The nine award winners, pictured at right, were (back row, left to right) Joseph Holmes, Durn Smith, Abdul Manan, (General Manager John Gonzales), Mahenda Patel, Geoffrey Nyandieka and (front row, left to right) Lorena Navarrete, Nayhna Parekh, Ravinderjeet Ahluwalia and Erma Tillman.

Geoffrey Nyandieka is from Kenya and is the youngest of 10 children. After competing internationally in soccer, he was able to come to the United States. "I'm enjoying a different life here in America," he said. "I'm happy to be here and working for Air Serv as a security officer. I especially enjoy when I am assigned to work in a place where I met the departures and arrivals from different states and greet them. I give thanks to God for giving me this chance to change my living standard."

A native of Texas, Joseph Holmes served three years in the army in New York and in Germany. After leaving the military, he taught grade school and was an elementary school principal in Garden City, Texas.
