Today was one of those moments our family will never forget. ❤️
My dad received a surprise visit today along with this incredibly thoughtful letter and gifts recognizing him for over 50 years with Mobil/ExxonMobil.
Reading the words written about him, his dedication, his values, and the relationships he’s built in the New Canaan community truly meant the world to us. They recognized something we’ve always known — that Kean’s Korner was never just a gas station to him. It was a place where people mattered, conversations mattered, and service always came first.
To say he was emotional and happy would be an understatement. This business has been his life, his passion, and his pride for decades. Watching him be recognized for continuing the family tradition and mentoring the next generation was such a beautiful moment for our family.
My brother and I are beyond proud of what our father has created — not just for us, but for our children and future generations to continue.
A heartfelt thank you to Marisa for stopping by, making this all possible, and making my dad’s day so incredibly special. And thank you to Megan Harrison and the ExxonMobil team for such a meaningful recognition. ❤️
