I would like to convay my most sincere condolences on behalf of my self, Gary D. and The Outten Dealerships. I've immensely enjoyed our dealings, some people are large and some are larger than life both would apply to Mr. St. Clair. I will miss the stories, the heckling and the no-nonsense approach that he brought into this dealership. God Bless You Mr. St. Clair, God bless you Mrs. St. Clair and God Bless you Jimmy.
