“Here Comes Sim!” That sign adorned the front of an old, beat-up pickup truck belonging to Sim Fryson, Sr., a black man born in the Deep South of Reform, Alabama, in 1896. “There Goes Sim!” read the sign on the back of the truck that Sim used to haul manure, dirt, and coal to help support his large family.
Sim Fryson Jr., or “Simmy,” as his mother called him, was often teased as a child about that battered old truck. But he knew that his father, despite the persecution and prejudice he faced every day, was a man of extreme integrity. Sim Sr. treated everyone with respect and dignity and expected the same in return. That positive influence created in young Sim a burning desire to grow up to be a man his father would be proud of.
This book is the story of the younger Sim’s life and how he rose from humble beginnings to be a successful college-educated businessman, athlete, musician, family man, and community leader. He was the first black American to own multiple car dealership franchises of Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Nissan and Mazda. As a tribute to his father, “Here Comes Sim” adorned the front of every car he sold. Among many other honors, he has been listed in Black Enterprise Magazine as one of the top 100 Black Businesses in the country.
Co-writing with author Susan Phelps Harvey, Sim tells his story with candor. Sometimes funny, sometimes awkward, but always honest and true, Sim “tells it like it is,” revealing his teenage escapades, his encounters with famous athletes, and his constant drive to succeed to honor his father’s name.
As Sim gained success, he realized that he hadn’t done it all on his own. God had blessed him. He began to study his Bible as intently and carefully as he had done everything else in his life. Along the way, he developed a new and deeper relationship with God, and discovered Bible truths that challenged him to make profound changes in the way he ran his business. His struggles with his conscience and the miraculous way God blessed his decisions to do the right thing are at the heart of this story. Sim Fryson continues to strive to live his life in a way that honors the memory of his earthly father, and, every day, he gives all the glory and praise to his heavenly Father.

"Here Comes Sim" was VERY enjoyable. I was in the middle of a long-term project when I started reading it, intending to come back to it in a month or so when I finished what I was working on. But lo and behold, I couldn't put the book down! I just kept turning the pages one after the other to see what new adventures Sim was up to and how he was dealing with the challenges and personalities coming his way: an inter-racial marriage "back in the day"; trying to turn around failed car dealerships; interacting with sports figures like Muhammad Ali, Dusty Baker, Randy Moss, Major Harris--it was just one adventure after the other! The book is highly entertaining--and informative. A real treasure from a well-lived life. And although I don't share Sim's religious views, I admire his sincerity and enthusiasm as he seeks to reconcile his professed beliefs with his actions, all the way to closing his auto stores on the busiest car-sales day of the week: Saturday, his Sabbath. The book is so well-written I did something I hadn't done in over 20 years: I read the whole book in one day--amaaazing!! Do yourself a favor and get, read and share this book!Product details

Here Comes Sim edition by Sim Fryson Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
GOOD READ
I have the pleasure of knowing Sim. Over the years I've seen him in action as a friend and businessman. This book fills in some of the blanks about how he came to be a good and Godly man. I enjoyed it very much.
This book is inspiring. It is a story about hard work and God's blessing. The story about how a man in West Virginia made great success when the odds were not in his favor. It will inspire you to push harder in life and to aspire for more, even when others tell you it is not possible. Through success and failure progress can be achieved. A must read!
This was a very enjoyable and inspiring read. It is a real life story of how a guy that happens to be African American from humble means realized the American dream as an entrepreneur. But it was deeper than that. The story challenges the reader to asses the convictions of their faith and highlights the pros and cons of focus, hard work, vision, relationships, self confidence and street smarts. A remarkable success story! Ron Newsome
Here Comes Sim is the interesting journey from childhood to adulthood of one man's life. On this journey, the reader has many rich experiences as he reads about the life of Sim from poverty to success, both financially and spiritually. Here Comes Sim is a must read for young and old alike, you will be richly blessed to witness how Sim tackles life obstacles and discovers the greater lessons of life. This book is a Fantastic read!
I started reading and went through almost half the book before stopping. It is so well written, detailed, and inspirational.....quality from beginning to end! A wonderful human journey and one that shows the way of true faith in God!
This was one of the best books I have read recently. It not only is inspiring from a professional perspective, but, it also provides a unique spiritual experience that makes you want to dig deeper into the Bible and use it to guide your life and convictions. I highly recommend this to anyone in any profession. You will be motived and encourage to maintain values and a hard work ethic. It is great to hear from a man that "walks the talk". I cant wait for he next book
