C.J. Somerville joined Team Gilbert in 2012 at Gilbert Chevrolet as a Service Technician. During his time at Chevrolet, C.J. worked as a Service Technician, Service Advisor, and then the Assistant Service Manager. As hard as it was to say “goodbye” C.J. and his family moved out of state. They couldn’t stay away from this Florida sunshine long. Longing for beautiful weather, a friendly hometown, and a desire to help his church, C.J. and his family recently moved back to Florida where he re-joined Team Gilbert. This time he has joined the Gilbert Ford Service Team as their Service Manager. C.J says, “I’m super happy to be back and I’m excited to see what we can do in the future!” When asked why he chose to join Team Gilbert, C.J. answered, “because I felt I had more opportunities to grow.” He said there is one person on Team Gilbert who has helped mold him into who he is today. “Jim Kenbeek has always been a wealth of knowledge. He is also very structured and hard working. He has definitely taught me a lot.” One of C.J.’s favorite things about his current position as service manager is problem-solving and working with people. C.J. is married to his beautiful wife, Darcee and together they have 10 children and 1 granddaughter; Markies, Jaeden, Avery, Treyson, Angelina, Jizelle, Athena, Elijah, Emma, and Tayjon. He enjoys boating, fishing, and spending quality time with his family. We look forward to seeing your continued growth with Gilbert, C.J. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication.
