On May 6, 1979 Butler's Collision officially open it's doors. Wow it has been 47 years. As the owners of Butler's Collision my wife, Roseanna Schnepper and myself are extremely grateful for our very loyal customer base. We have worked hard to provide great personal service with professional results.
It takes a great team of people to make that happen and over 47 years we have been blessed by some very dedicated individuals. I need to thank a few of them because they played a big role in our success. David Hartley came to work for us around 1980 and worked for us for over 40+ years before he retired. I could write pages about Dave and the value he brought to our business but that would not be enough, he was also a great person outside of an employee.
Another employee is Tim Kauffman. Tim has been with us for close to 30 years. He is such a hard worker and an example to others in our shop on what a good work ethic is. Tim's son Jonathan has joined our team a few years back and shares some of his dad's attributes.
There is one more that deserves a shout out and that is our son Daniel Schnepper. He started working at the shop while in high school keeping the shop clean and cleaning and detailing cars and 25+ years later he is the GM of Butler's Collision. He learned the business by working in every aspect of the shop. He has done all the training and truly has a desire to make sure the cars we fix are fixed properly. He is my right hand and I would be loss without him.
The rest of our staff is also wonderful. From Bonnie and Josiah in the front office, Michael and Brooklynn in the paint shop, and Jeff, Ethan and Roan taken care of parts and keeping the shop clean.
On behalf of Roseanna and I thank you to our customers and staff for the 47 years of support.
