Here it is June already, needless to say the next two months are going to
be extremely tough, so I will apologize now. As many of you may
know, Butch’s birthday would have been June 6th
, it will be our first
birthday without him, and we miss him so much. The cruise ins just
don’t seem the same without him. It is also election time and if this is
my last letter as Vice President, just let me say it has been an honor and
privilege to hold this position, I know that at times my mind and heart
just hasn’t been there but I so appreciate all of you for what you have
done for our family.
Speaking of cruise ins, WOW, the attendance has been wonderful and
the vendors seem to be working out thus far. I really appreciate all that
everyone is doing to make our cruise ins the best they can be. As al-
ways, recommendations/suggestions are welcomed. The only issue that
I have seen or should I say heard are the “squealing of the tires” when
some are leaving. If you see any of this type of behavior, take note. I
will be giving out a small reminder card to all to let them know that this
type of behavior will not be tolerated. I hate to do that, but I feel this is
an excellent location for us and we don’t need to hurt our relationship
with Kmart.
The annual HCCC picnic will be on Sunday, June 12th
at the home of
Don McGinnis. Hamburgers and hot dogs will be supplied by the club.
Please contact Theresa Blanken for other items needed. I will be doing a
special balloon release in Butch’s memory to honor his birthday.
Again, I just want all of you to know how much I appreciate what you do
and have done; this club has been a true blessing to me and my family.
Much love and happiness!
Lisa

The Hamblen County Car Club
It wasn’t that long ago that Bobby Greenlee (HCCC member), a Morris-
town resident with more than 35 years experience in the automotive in-
dustry, discovered car owners of Morristown needed an auto repair
show they could trust. They needed a mechanic that would do great
work for an affordable price. One last element missing from many
shops in the area was just good old fashioned customer service!
The Budget Auto Clinic opened in west Morristown in June 2015 and
customers can’t stop raving well they are treated when they bring their car in. The business is located at 3915 West
Andrew Johnson Highway. Common Services Provided Included: Lube, oil & filter, brake replacement and repair,
A/C repair and servicing, shock & strut replacement, transmission overhaul, engine overhaul, steering and suspension
and general tune-up.
Bobby and his wife Ruth have been married for 13 years, they have four children and three grandchildren.
