Congratulations on 34 years of auto repair service.
Congratulations on 34 years of auto repair service.

35 Years Anniversary!
_______

After being an exemplary employee for many years at the Volkswagen Dealership, my dad stepped out on faith and opened his own business, Smitty’s Auto Service, Inc., 35 years ago!

Many don't know the backstory, so I'll share. He decided to leap into Entrepreneurship due to the dealership trying to fire him because he chose to buy a car that they didn't sell. I know right? The audacity!!

Anywho, everything happens for a reason and 35 years later, he's still here..... God is good

Happy 35th Anniversary young man, I love you and I'm super proud of you.
- Surinda Smith, proud daughter
