I have been remiss in not writing sooner to tell you how much your dealership and your employees have made a difference in my grandmother?s life. My grandmother,... is an 88 year old widow. She is still driving her 1987 Subaru, thanks to you. This car is the life line that allows her to get out and go to the grocery store, or to the cemetery, or visit her children.

You should be commended for having such a talented
