AUSTIN, TX - The Texas Trucking Association (TXTA) is proud to announce the establishment of the Allied Appreciation Award, or Triple A Award, a new award recognizing Allied Members for their exceptional contributions to TXTA and the trucking industry. This award celebrates individuals who exemplify dedication and commitment, serving as role models within the transportation sector and support the trucking industry through their company's goods, products and services.   

The inaugural recipient of the 2024 Allied Appreciation Award is John Mondics of Mondics Insurance Group, Inc. As the first honoree, John Mondics will be remembered for his unwavering service, support, and commitment to the trucking industry. With a remarkable 45-year membership in TXTA, Mondics has not only made significant monetary contributions, totaling approximately $2 million, but has also provided his valuable time and effort to support causes important to the Association. In fact, his leadership has been instrumental in TXTA’s ongoing legislative efforts to combat lawsuit abuse in the state.  

"John Mondics' commitment to the trucking industry and his leadership within TXTA set a high standard for others to follow. His efforts have not only benefited our Association but have also strengthened the entire industry. We are honored to recognize him as the first recipient of the Allied Appreciation Award," said TXTA President and CEO, John D. Esparza. 

Mondics was celebrated at the Allied Celebration Dinner during the TXTA Annual Conference in San Antonio on August 2. His legacy of service and leadership will continue to inspire future generations within the trucking industry.
