Doty's Auto Repair issues "a heart-felt thank you"
Doty’s Auto Repair on Jefferson St. in Bluffton is wrapping up business on August 29 after over 40 years of providing repair and maintenance. Mike Doty, who grew up in the business and took over from his dad in 2019, is closing the shop to start a new career. He has a “heart-felt thank you for … a tight knit community” and the “word of mouth that kept them in business.” An injury is preventing Mike from continuing in the same role. He has a new job at Youth for Christ.
