Our responsibility

A wise man once said with great power comes great responsibility. Although I am no Don Corleone, I feel that same responsibity for my extended family at my operation. I take the reponsibility of keeping my staff employed and safe very seriously. Just like family, we love, laugh and fight but in the end we protect each other.

This weekend we lost a member of our extended family. Our own Michele of the insurance agency has to deal with the tragic loss of Manny, her fiance and the father of her two children. We are all saddened by this loss and we will be there for her and her family in whatever capacity she needs without exception. A real good guy and an honest provider, he showed us all that regardless of what you do in life it is important to take your responsibility serious. This he did.

In this time of Thanksgiving, it is more important than ever to remember we are all responsible to support each other, not just in times of crisis. This also goes for total strangers. Do the right thing and pay it forward. In Manny's honor, take a week to do something good for a stranger and remind yourself of your awesome responsibility.
