Default Was the Dealer Principal of Napa CJDR a former Chrysler Regional Manager?

Although it was a bit before my time I'm 98% certain that the Dealer Principal for Napa CJDR, Patrick Smorra, was a Regional Manager for Chrysler based out of Los Angeles in the mid 80s. (For Chrysler, a Regional Manager would be a top ranking position with all of the Zone Managers, Zone Staff and District Managers reporting to that individual.)

If my recollection is correct, Patrick Smorra was the Regional Manager for Chrysler's Sales Division and had control over all the western states. Back in the 80s Chrysler would have had 25 Zone Offices that reported to 5 Regional Offices.

It appears that Patrick Smorra had a son with the same name and that's who is currently running the business; Patrick Smorra, Jr.
