OKLAHOMA CITY, OK Kirby-Smith Machinery, Inc. announces the promotion of Gary Boyd to Service Manager in Dallas, Texas. Boyd, who joined the company in 2009, will manage the branch service operations for Kirby-Smith Machinery's Dallas facility. He was promoted from his role as Product Service Manager in Dallas and brings more than 40 years of heavy equipment service experience to the position, including previous experience as a Branch Service Manager in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. 

Boyd's wealth of industry knowledge will serve him well in his new position, as will the strong rapport he has built with the service department over the years. Already viewed as a leader in the department, he was an active participant for Kirby-Smith's Technician Mentor Program in Dallas, where he was selected not only as a mentor to technicians, but also as a coach to other mentors in the program.

"Gary has extensive experience coming into this role," said Tom Montgomery, Vice President of Customer Care.

Gary has been a tremendous mentor for our new technicians, and I believe he will do a great job leading our service team in Dallas."
