A Forwarder Tale
     At EMO Trans Stuttgart Andreas Pfitzner, Stuttgart Branch Manager, received a special request from EMO Trans Global Logistics founder Mr. Eckart Moltmann.
     Mr. Moltmann’s brother Prof. Dr Jürgen Moltmann, a leading theologian passed away June 4, 2024 at age of 98.
     Jürgen Moltmann’s most recent book, “Hope in These Troubled Times” published in 2019 added to his lifelong dedication as one of the most widely read and respected theologians in the world.
     Fifty years after his first work, Jürgen Moltmann remained a leading thinker in Christian theology, political and ecological theology, and the theology of hope.
     Luckily for people in the USA and students around the world, Jürgen, maintained a private library. He also taught at Emory University in Atlanta from 1983 to 1993 serving as the Robert W. Woodruff Distinguished Visiting Professor of Systematic Theology at Candler School of Theology.
     Jürgen Moltmann’s four daughters and his brother Eckart in an act of selfless outreach, arranged a donation of 4,000 books to the Emory collection library, and a team of EMO personnel, including the aforementioned Andreas Pfitzner pictured with Stuttgart Airfreight Export Manager Laura Rodriguez Lozano who in 2024 celebrated 25 years with EMO Trans, Dennis Scholz Stuttgart Airfreight Export Manager (above right), and the Stuttgart support team arranged for custom packing of 4,000 books for airlifting to Atlanta.
     In Atlanta, Tommy Heisley, Airfreight Manager, (bottom left) Samantha Singletary, CHB Manager, (bottom right) and the EMO Trans ATL support team worked closely to communicate details and successfully delivered the books to Emory University.
     Maybe most heartfelt in all of this was reaction of the ATL EMO Trans team who described the experience this way:
     “It was great to work with friends and colleagues at the STR office, as well as have the honor of supporting the beloved Mr. Moltmann and his family with this donation to Emory University.”
     “Success By Performance” is wonderful to contemplate these days.
