Although the picture is a bit blurry (my hands aren’t always that steady!), today’s tribute is to my amazing ‘boss’ – CEO and owner of Smail Auto, and the person I have worked for since 1967.

Bud and his wife Ellen have been part of my life for so long they feel like family.  They have encouraged, supported, instructed, directed, and taught me through every phase of my adult life.  Although, to be fair, I do tell everyone I was only two when I started working there; makes it hard to figure out my age that way!

I am just taking time today to say thanks – for their faith in me- and most recently LETTERS TO MARY .  And I am sending a HUGE Merry Christmas to Bud and Ellen, their families, and all the beautiful people I have met and worked with.  There are so many  friendships that have blessed my life!  Wishing the best of holidays and continued success and health in 2015!  Bud and Ellen – love you!
