accidents.
“This
is truly an amazing accomplishment. Danny’s outstanding record is appreciated

Ontengco
was humbled by the award and mentioned that he and his wife have
never visited California. “What a great way to visit and be honored all at once,”
responded Bautista-Tirado. “Thank you, Danny. You
are an example for all. “
Congratulations,
and thank you for keeping safety first, Danny!
