With Heavy Hearts the Coast Machinery Movers Family has lost one of our founding executives. John Mountjoy passed away on May 1, 2021. John worked at Coast for 47 Years. John served the company with a passion that will be forever missed. John’s presence at Coast daily and on projects throughout California deservingly made him a legend. John’s loyalty and passion was also exemplified in his love for Drag Racing and Muscle Cars. When John was not selling for Coast he was either driving around in a really nice car or likely involved with one that was racing. John’s Coast Customer Base maintained a relationship with John that transcended the day-to-day business. He made an impact with everyone he met, John’s customer relationships lasted.
At Coast, we are beyond saddened. At Coast, we consider ourselves as a Legacy Company. John will forever be a Legacy.
We are planning a celebration of life for John very soon and will reach out to his friends and colleagues to join us.
Rest in Peace “Diamond John”. Your Coast Family will Forever Miss You.
I was deeply saddened to hear the loss John. My thoughts are with John’s family, friends and Coast Machinery Movers
