REMEMBERING GEORGE W. SZTYKIEL
George W. Sztykiel, pioneering engineer and founding force behind Spartan Motors, passed away earlier this week leaving behind a legacy that reshaped the fire apparatus industry. Born in 1929 in Poland, George survived the hardships of wartime occupation before immigrating to the United States, where he built a remarkable career defined by innovation, resilience, and leadership.
George spent 19 years at Chrysler as an engineer before joining Diamond Reo Trucks. When Diamond Reo declared bankruptcy in 1975, he and three fellow engineers—Bill Foster, Jerry Geary, and John Knox—joined with Form Rite’s Charles McManamey to found Spartan Motors. Their first fire truck chassis, built in a commercial garage and sold to FMC in early 1976, marked the beginning of a company that would become a cornerstone of the emergency vehicle industry.
As President, Chairman of the Board, and CEO, George led Spartan Motors with a philosophy rooted in simplicity, frugality, and engineering excellence. Under his guidance, Spartan became known for its wide, roomy cabs, efficient manufacturing processes, and groundbreaking designs that set new standards for firefighter safety and apparatus performance. Even after passing day to day responsibilities to his son, John Sztykiel, George remained an active mentor and guiding presence within the company.
“George was an extraordinary visionary whose leadership helped shape the modern fire apparatus industry,” said Mike Virnig, President of the Terex Specialty Vehicles Segment. “His relentless commitment to engineering excellence and his unwavering focus on firefighter safety set a standard for the industry. George wasn’t just a leader; he was a steady source of wisdom, humility, and encouragement. I am profoundly grateful for the guidance and friendship he shared throughout the years. His legacy will endure in every chassis built, every innovation inspired, and every firefighter whose life is made safer because of his work.”

Remembering Dan Peters, Former President of E-ONE, REV Fire Group

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Dan Peters, a longtime leader in the fire industry and a former president of E-ONE and REV Fire Group. Peters served as president of E-ONE from 2013 to 2020.

During that time, he was instrumental in working with the REV Group in acquiring three additional fire truck manufacturers – Ferrara Fire Apparatus, KME Fire Apparatus and Spartan Emergency Response, which includes Smeal, Ladder Tower and Spartan Fire Chassis. Dan served as the first president of the REV Fire Group.

"Dan was just a unique visionary leader whose unwavering dedication shaped E-ONE and inspired many within the fire industry,” said Mike Virnig, President of the Terex Specialty Vehicles Segment. “His passion for innovation and commitment to safety set the standard for all of us. Dan was a mentor to me and many others, and I am forever grateful for his guidance, wisdom, and friendship. His legacy will live on in every vehicle we build and every life we help protect."

Dan leaves behind his indelible mark of leadership, innovation, and service to the fire and emergency response community. Throughout his long and distinguished career, he dedicated himself to supporting the men and women who serve and protect others every day, helping advance the safety, effectiveness, and future of the fire service industry.

In addition to his work at E-ONE, Dan served as president of Akron Brass, vice president of sales for Pierce Manufacturing, and later as CEO of Emergency Response Technologies Inc (ERT).
During this difficult time, please keep in your thoughts and prayers his devoted wife, Jennie; his daughter, Chelsea Darley, and her husband Ryan; his son, Elliott Peters, and his wife Mallory; Jennie’s children, Jordan Stout and her husband Nick, and Tanner Weaver and his wife Mackenzie; along with his seven deeply cherished grandchildren, who brought him so much joy and pride.

He also leaves behind countless friends, colleagues, and members of the fire service community whose lives were forever impacted by his wisdom, steady leadership, generous spirit, and unwavering friendship. His legacy will live on not only through his family, but through the many people he mentored, inspired, and cared for throughout his life.
