To All at Westerville Automotive who have served me and my car over recent years: Thank You!!! My Toyota Matrix (2008) and I have parted ways since I am no longer able to safely drive. However, my Matrix is still going strong largely due to your care and service. It has been passed on to my delighted Granddaughter with my blessing. Over the years that I have resided at Westerwood, formerly Friendship Village Columbus, I have brought my car to you for its service and care. I have been most appreciative of the extra service of transporting me to and from my retirement home while the car was getting serviced. Your thoughtful generosity and pleasant manner meant so much. Sincerely, Nada K. Marie
