I bought a truck from from Jerry Hamm in 1999 and I still have it today. I had an issue after the warranty expired and he still took care of it. It may seem like a little thing but something I will always remember. He was an honest business man who took care of his customers.

Mr. Hamm, as I always called him was a good Christian man and an excellent boss and Accounting manager when I worked for him at Gordon Thompson Chevrolet . He was always fair in all his work policies. When we had a lot of work to accomplish, he would say" Well , Nellie, we are getting down to our size, now. As We both were short in statue, but not in our faith in Jesus. Our sincere condolences to his family, friends, and co workers. I know he us rest resting in peace.
