Grace,
I was so sorry to hear about Jan, We have been friends since the 80's,him working for GMAC and me working for the Gm Dealers in Madison and Reidsville. He was always such a nice person and from the first day I met him we kind of clicked. He and Gene Wheeler were my favorite people from GMAC. I always enjoyed talking with Jan. He always had a smile on his face even though he might be having a bad day trying to find people who might be a little behind on payments. We always had a good laugh before he would leave the dealership and always thanked me for my help. He will not be forgotten.
May God bless you and be with you in the days to come.
