Leonard is a member of GM's Mark Of Excellence year after year for superior performance and customer service.

"I love the auto industry, and the challenges that come with my job on a daily basis. No 2 days are ever the same. In my off time I enjoy spending my days helping friends and family with home projects such as replacing a water heater or building a new garage or room addition or just retiling a floor in somebodys kitchen. I have 4 children Nick, Greg, Doug and Alexis and enjoy my time with my family, and I thank my lucky stars that Gail Haynie came into my life with her 2 dogs Keri & Taylor. She has changed my life for the better and I have never been happier or enjoyed life more than I do today."

The last 16 have been in Yorkville where I live with my dogs Chester and Jake. In my free time I am enjoying every minute of daylight in my yard with the peacefulness of country living.

Good day, my name is James Friday. My experience in the auto business has equaled to 25 years in the Fox Valley area. I have been employed here at Gjovik for ten weeks. I previously worked for Gartner Buick Hyundai Saab from June 1984 to June 2007 and Crossroads Chevy Buick from August 2007 to June 2009.

When I am not helping a client, I like to sing tenor in the church choir or the Naperville Chorus. While it is nice to receive awards and recognition for excellence and service, there is no better feeling than to have a repeat customer or a referral from a satisfied client. Thank you for your business and your loyalty.

I'm a 1992 graduate of Sandwich High School, and in 1995 I completed the Auto Body Repair program at Waubonsee Community College.. For 34 of my 35 years, I've lived in or near the Sandwich / Somonauk area. In my spare time, I enjoy rooting for my favorite NASCAR and football teams (DA BEARS!), playing cards with my friends, and bowling. I'm here to serve .... Ask me anything about your vehicle, and if I don't know the answer at first, I'll find the answer and pass it on to you.
