Good morning everyone,
I just wanted to take a moment to personally thank each and every one of you for the incredible kindness and support you’ve shown me and my family during this time.
From the heartfelt phone calls and thoughtful gifts, to everyone who has reached out with suggestions and leads for possible new locations, your support has meant more to me than I can put into words. I also want to sincerely thank everyone who generously donated to the GoFundMe that my daughter organized. I am truly humbled by the response.
After serving this community for more than 35 years, it means the world to me to see how many people care about South Riverdale Auto Service and want to see us continue. This community has been much more than just a place where I’ve worked — it has become like family to me.
We are still actively searching for a new location in the immediate neighborhood. Our hope is to stay right here in Riverdale, but if that isn’t possible, we are determined to find something as close to Riverdale as we can so we can continue serving the customers and community that have supported us for so many years.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your generosity, encouragement, and continued support. I am incredibly grateful to all of you.
We’ll continue to keep everyone updated as soon as we have news to share.
With sincere gratitude,
Bruce Yudman
South Riverdale Auto Service
