In Memory of Michael Alves

With great sadness, I extend my deepest condolences to the Alves family and share with our Jo-Dan Buick GMC families that our beloved Michael Alves has passed away. Mike was a valued member of the community and our Jo-Dan Buick GMC store for many years. His dedication, hard work and positive attitude made a significant impact on our team and our customers. His absence will undoubtedly leave a void that cannot be easily filled.

During his time with us, Michael proved to be not only an outstanding professional but also a warm and caring individual. His kindness, empathy and willingness to lend a hand were evident to all who had the pleasure of working with him. Michael had a remarkable ability to bring joy and harmony to the workplace, and his presence brightened the days of all those around him.

We understand that this loss is immeasurable, and the grief at times overwhelming. Our company is a family and we will stand together to provide comfort, strength, and understanding. We will continue to be here for our customers and extended Jo-Dan Buick GMC family as we process this loss together.

Warmest Regards,

Dan Limongelli

Michael T. Alves

1965 - 2023

"Michael T Alves, 58, of Shavertown, passed away peacefully with his family by his side after a brief battle with cancer on Monday, October 16, 2023.

During his career in automobile sales and management, which started in his early 20s; Mike served as a mentor to many young sales people, modeling client relationships and challenging those around him to be better. Mike will be remembered for his honesty, kind nature and great sense of humor.

He loved cars, boats and sports; particularly the Giants and the Yankees. More than anything, Mike loved his family and friends and enjoyed having "everyone" around, Mike's super hero quality was his willingness to help anyone. His gentle kind spirit will be missed by everyone who had the honor of knowing him.

His wife, Lisa, and his family would like to thank all of his family, friends and co-workers who made these final months special by visiting, sharing stories and laughing about the antics of Mike Alves. A very special thank you is extended to Mike's employer, the Limongelli family for their unwavering love, support and commitment to Mike and his family. They truly went above and beyond and demonstrated the values of a family owned and run business."
