Oklahoma Towing & Recovery

It with heavy heart to report a driver lost to the industry over the weekend. Please keeps his family, friends and co-workers in your thoughts. We are sorry for your loss Red Beards Towing. Rest in peace John, we will carry your chains from here.

It is with a very heavy heart that we announce the loss of our friend and Red Beard's tow operator, John Mills, who was killed in the line of duty Saturday evening.
There are not sufficient words to express the heartbreak we feel. John was an integral part of our team. He treated our customers with respect, had a willingness to help anyone who needed it, and always operated safely.
John will be missed, not only by us, but by his friends and loving family. We ask that you please keep his loved ones in your prayers, and respect their privacy at this time while they navigate this tremendous loss.
We implore the community to remember to move over for emergency vehicles. Not only is it the law, but it could prevent another loss as heartbreaking as this.
We will honor John as he will always be a part of our family. The tow community has lost another great one.

Godspeed John, and thank you for your service.

Just a heads up for all those that have a lien on their vehicle. Oklahoma has become a title holding state. This means that if you purchase a vehicle and have a lien on it (financed), you will NOT receive an Oklahoma title after you register the vehicle. The title will instead be turned over to the lienholder until it is paid off.
