History 
Jay Cimino was born in 1936, and grew up in Trinidad. He followed his high school career with a brief stint in the United States Marine Corps before deciding to pursue higher education. Cimino began college at Trinidad State Junior College, and ended at the University of Denver. The October after college graduation, he was married to sweetheart Emily Roitz. He then dove headfirst into the automotive industry with a management position at B. F. Goodrich. His Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration was most famously put to use, however, when he partnered with automotive magnate Phil Long. Together, the entrepreneurial tag team expanded Phil Long Ford into an entire chain of successful dealerships. When Long died in 2001, Cimino continued to acquire and discard dealerships for the sake of the larger corporation. Family influence 
Cimino's five dealership-owning uncles undoubtedly influenced his career trajectory. His son, Mike Cimino, is following in his footsteps as the vice president of the Phil Long Dealerships in Colorado Springs, possible successor to his father, and chairman of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
