Dealerships are, in many cases, pillars of their communities and many have been in their local area for decades. Dealers are some of the most generous contributors to their local communities and WVADA is proud to highlight some of our members’ activities.
After 30 years with Harry Green Chevrolet Nissan (and driving the Courtesy Van for the last 18), Sonny retired. If you’ve had the privilege of riding in the Courtesy Van with him or talking to him in the showroom, you know what a joyful spirit he has. We appreciate all his hard work over the years, and he will most certainly be missed! In addition, Joe will be retiring from the sales floor after 35 years and moving over to the Courtesy Van! Thank you, Sonny and Joe, for all your years with the dealership!
You don’t get too many employees like our Service Director, Ron Byrd. We greatly appreciate your 39 years of service and all you’ve contributed to the dealership. Congratulations on your retirement!
