Richard took me under his wing and taught me the car business as a very young man- I moved to Florida and was able to buy my son a new car and send him to college and help him become the man he is, by making lots of money in the car business
I retired at age 55 -
Mr A was a great man and treated me like a son you only meet special people like that once in your lifetime. I will never forget you thank you

So very sorry for your loss.
For decades, each fall, I would go with my parents to your father's business and pick out another new Mercury Station Wagon.
Your father was a great guy.
