Default Merging Word with Excel - using multiple rows within a letter

Hello, I'm trying to merge an excel document that has multiple rows for one
area and I want to bring them into the one letter; i.e.: John Brown owns
three cars. I want one letter for John, referencing the three cars. So the
excell file would look like this:

John Brown Camaro
John Brown Corvette
John Brown Chevette

Is there an easy way or does it require more programming knowledge...?
