It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our President & CEO, Robert J. Smith III.

Bob carried forward a family legacy built on hard work, integrity, and dedication to both employees and the community. His leadership was deeply personal, rooted in respect for the people who make Highway Machine Co., Inc. what it is—people he also considered family. To many, Bob was not just a leader, but a mentor, colleague, and friend.

Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with his family during this incredibly difficult time.
