Grease Monkey - Aurora

We've all heard that terrible "clunk" when we realize the battery is as dead as a doornail. But last week, after calling the Grease Monkey located at 22515 East Aurora Parkway, the manager, Mike Long, took care of the problem. He sent a man to the house to jump start the car, so I could drive it back to the store. Since we needed a large battery, and one they didn't have in the shop...one was brought from another location, and installed within the hour. After complimenting Mike, he said, "We try very hard to do all we can for our customers, and provide the best possible service...that way, we know you'll come back to us."

About Me
- Elizabeth Wallace
- Over the past 15 years, I’ve published eight books on travel, local history and historical fiction. Several years ago, after speaking with family members in England, a name popped up that I hadn’t heard in ages. It was the dreaded name of Sawney Bean, a wicked and despicable Scottish folklore character from the 1600s. After researching Sawney and his clan, (the BBC did a documentary and tried to locate his cave) the inklings of a story began forming. The first book of what has become a trilogy, Forbidden describes Catherine MacDonald, who becomes a nun after being left by her mother at a priory. After an unusual encounter with a young woman she undertakes a journey to Scotland where she discovers what really happened to her mother, and the horrifying life she endured just to stay alive. In the second book, Damaged, Catherine tries valiantly to restore her respectability but is thwarted at every turn. Tainted by her mother’s legacy, she is shunned by the church, and by many of her friends. Unhappy and disillusioned with her life, she decides to embark on a journey to the New World. The final book, Expectations, will be published in the fall of 2014.
