Fette Ford Answers The Call

Whether you run a business or a charity, funding is among the top priorities of either. As the saying goes, “Money isn’t everything, but try do anything without it.” What often gets overlooked is the connection that sponsors or donors bring with them. Too often, businesses and charities fail to recognize that there is more to the aforementioned than simply dollar signs. The QUALITY of a sponsor or donor will reflect on the recipient. That is why it’s important that the quality men and women behind the scenes be recognized.

On December 10, 2019, Jersey City (NJ) Police Detective Joe Seals was killed in the line of duty as he interrupted two individuals who, while already wanted in connection to a murder that had occurred days earlier, were mustering plans before carrying out a much larger attack on Jersey City residents. While lives were lost that day, Detective Seals’ proactive police work and ultimate sacrifice undoubtedly saved hundreds of lives. Detective Seals left behind a wife and five children. 

Detective Seals’ oldest daughter, 18-year-old Hailey, has been commuting back and forth to college using mass transit or rides from friends and family as her family’s budget simply didn’t allow for her to own a vehicle. Enter Troy Mol and John Fette of Fette Ford (Clifton, NJ). Already well versed in her father’s heroism, when both were made aware of Hailey’s need for her own vehicle, there was never a question; they were making sure she had one. 

On February 13, 2020, Hailey was taken to Fette Ford under the guise that her parents were looking for a new car. Once there, she was seated in a brand new Ford Ecosport when she was met by Troy who informed her that the vehicle she was sitting in was actually hers.

The generosity of both Troy Mol and John Fette serves as a perfect example of the kind of sponsor/donor that businesses and charities should aim to surround themselves with. These men are more than simply sponsors, they are family; a concept that the law enforcement community specializes in. The fact that both men understood the need to take care of the child of one of our own, lost in the line of duty, demonstrate just how seriously they take their role in this that we do. That kind of loyalty and care is unmatched and precisely why our members have followed Troy Mol wherever he has gone.

Yes, money is something. But you can always find money. You can not always find someone like Troy Mol. As anyone who has ever sat with him and taken advantage of his services and expertise will tell you, Troy treats you with the same level of care and concern as he would one of his own. As such, on behalf of the members of Seals family, we collectively wanted to take this opportunity to thank both Troy Mol and John Fette for their unparalleled level of benevolence and concern for the law enforcement community and the families that support them.
