I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad, as well.

My Mom will be gone 20 yrs in July, and my Dad will be gone 6 yrs in September.
We never stop missing them.

...THANK YOU TO GM AND ALL THE FOLKS AT OSHAWA for the "gift that keeps on giving"....
Awesome, Donna!!!

Great story Donna, glad that the Oshawa Camaro Build Team is always with you and helping to make your day a bit better. I lost my dad 10 yrs ago and still miss him each day. I don't own a Camaro, but I'm sure he'd approve of the 5thgen. Best regards from Canada.

This put a smile from ear to ear on my face! That's awesome, and truly amazing that 5 years later, the same thing happens. It's like a little blast from the past- truly amazing. Both of your cars are beautiful, btw. Best wishes to you!
Kaleb.

thank you for everything, Mike Judge!!!

You know you will always hold a very special place in my heart.

I am sorry about your Dad. I know the pain you feel. my Dad will be gone 6 yrs in Sept, and my Mom will be gone 20 yrs in July.

They are always with me. I have a feeling they would approve of my Camaro purchase and all the joy it has brought me so far, and for all the family I gained with the purchase.

I am so happy I got a chance to meet you and thank you in person for building me the happiest car I have ever owned and driven in my whole life!!!
