Morrie Shepard
I started in the auto business as a salesman when I was 21 because my job as a ski instructor in Aspen came to an end, in the spring. A great friend, to this day, offered me a job selling Fords and almost 50 years later, here I am. My career included representing brands like Ford, Chevrolet, Porsche, Audi, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo and Mazda. I also worked in other industries including PaineWebber from 1987 to 1990 as an Investment Executive, and I founded Impact Systems, Inc., a CRM consulting firm, which I owned from 1995 to 2010.
At Centennial Leasing & Sales I am able to fully utilize all of my knowledge and experience, to help people, really enjoy their buying and leasing experience. I am very grateful for my loyal clients and their referrals and grateful for a company like Centennial that provides the foundation and support to help and care for people, as we do. We are a family that pulls together for each other, again and again unlike any other organization! I trust, respect and enjoy the people in this company to the extent that I have brought my oldest daughter McKenzie onboard to assist and take over my business. She has been with me since July of 2022, and is providing the same great service that you expect when buying a vehicle at Centennial Leasing & Sales. Be sure to view her company Bio!
Hobbies
My favorite moments away from the office include enjoying the many outdoor opportunities that my home state of Colorado offers. Skiing, camping, fishing, hunting, shooting, four wheeling, cooking, grilling, gardening, hiking, great Mexican restaurants and so much more. The best times are spent with my amazing daughters, McKenzie and Meredith! One of our favorite traditions is to go to the mountains every November and cut our Christmas tree, making a day of it with a campfire and grilled brats. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me and my daughter, McKenzie!
