 It’s finally Spring, and practically Summer with these warm
days! Hope you’re doing lots of business but also leaving time
for gardening, beach, whatever you love to do when the weather is fine!
Karen McKenna-Veliotis,
Creative
Memories Senior Consultant has
this to say about one of her Connections: "What
a delight! I met with one of our newest members, Patricia Funder
of LaserLight
Skin Clinic and I was so impressed with her and her office,
which is conveniently located at Queen Anne’s Corner in Norwell.
It is such a pretty office, decorated with the most beautiful quilts.
It is clean and professional and such a nice place to be in. She has
started my first treatment and WOW, easy, quick, and I was so impressed
with her knowledge and bedside manner. You have got to check her out!"
Judy Walsh-Rodriguez of Watch All
Integrated Pest Management wanted to take this
opportunity to thank John Karcher from Buyer
1st "for putting me on his mailing
list. Although I’m not in the market for a new home at this time,
I do try and share some of the listings that he sends with people that
I know that may be looking. His newsletter has some good information
and it’s not just information regarding real estate. The last
newsletter I received came with two cent stamps for when the postage
increases soon. Now, that’s service as far as I’m concerned.
Thank you John and I highly recommend his services
to anyone who may be looking for a new ‘home sweet home.’ "
And I’d like to thank Kathleen Kingsbury
of KBK Connections for presenting a GREAT Brown Bag Workshop
the other day on "Setting
Fees – An Emotional Business." Lots of great information,
networking, a very valuable seminar!
"Summer afternoon - summer afternoon; to
me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English
language." ~Henry
