Pride, Quality and Our History From the pen of Steve Foster, President Celebrating Our 50th Anniversary!
In June of 1973, after graduating from Illinois State University, Steve Foster joined his father, primarily to sell ambulances, as Floyd thought trucks should deliver products, not people. Steve had an EMT license and had a feel for what the vehicles needed to have to perform to the needs of the EMT. Steve, now President of the company, handles sales in the Chicago Metro area. Floyd retired in 1985 and lived in Sterling to “keep an eye” on the business and be close to his family & friends. He passed away in November 2002 after about ten years of worsening health. Kevin Klocke joined Foster Coach, Inc. in 1985, starting in the parts and service side of the business. He eventually worked into sales, and now covers Iowa and Missouri for the company. His working knowledge of the ambulance, as well as his service background has proved invaluable to his success in building new accounts. Andrew Foster has been representing Foster Coach, Inc. in Downstate Illinois since January 2004.
