Last night, the Cox Automotive group and our District 1 VP
JR Kostelich from NextGear Capital had an amazing opportunity to fund and volunteer for Roc Solid, a nonprofit organization childhood cancer foundation that builds hope for families fighting cancer by providing them with hospital Ready Bags at diagnosis and backyard playsets during treatment.
They met in Rocky Mount and spent 2 1/2 hours together constructing a play-set, outlining it, and mulching the area. It was such a heartwarming experience to be a part of, especially knowing that the 8-year-old child who will be enjoying this play-set has just entered remission after battling Leukemia for 18 months. It's moments like these that remind us of the power of coming together as a community to make a positive impact.
Thank you JR for all you do for us and everyone who was involved and let's continue spreading love and making a difference! #ROCSolid #CommunityImpact #coxautomotivegroup #NextGearCapital

Is this saying if a vehicle is over 10 years old that a recycler does not have to check for a lien or does have to?
Congratulations!

🕊️ Our heartfelt condolences go out to Pierce Reaves and his family on the passing of his grandfather, Wayne Reaves. Wayne's legacy as a respected dealer, chairman of the Used Car Board, and advocate for independent dealerships in Georgia and beyond will always be remembered. His dedication to the industry, tireless work on legislative issues, and unwavering support for dealers have left an indelible mark. Wayne was not only a professional ally but also a cherished friend to many. Our thoughts are with the Reaves family during this difficult time. 🕊️We are saddened to report that Wayne Reaves passed away last night.
As many of you know, Wayne was a dealer for years before he started Wayne Reaves Software and was also the chairman of the Used Car Board for several years.
Wayne was always a GIADA Board member, won several prestigious awards and was a huge part of starting the Buy Here Pay Here business in Georgia. He worked tirelessly to represent the independent dealer with legislative issues at the capital and to better support dealers, not only here in Georgia, but throughout the country.
He was a great friend to GIADA professionally and to so many of us personally. We offer our deepest condolences to the Reaves family.
Arrangements will be provided on our social media accounts as they become available.
