Barry Hall, manager of Highway Transport's largest tanker truck terminal in LaPorte TX, is observing 20 years with the company.
The celebration was attended by all area tank truck drivers and a few Highway Transport colleagues who traveled from Knoxville TN to LaPorte for the ceremony: Carra Eggers, director of human resources; Scott Ennen, vice-president of safety and quality; Gary Reagan, vice-president of operations; and Greg Watkins, president of the firm. Watkins presented an engraved Rolex Oyster watch to Hall.

He also served as service center manager at the company's South Carolina and Georgia locations. Hall returned to Knoxville in the mid-1990s as customer service manager and was soon promoted to Knoxville terminal manager. Since 2000, he has served as LaPorte terminal manager.
