April Showers bring May flowers. This popular saying reflects the cycle of nature where the rain in April helps to nourish the earth, allowing plants to bloom and blossom in May. The gentle showers in April are like an oath of new life and growth, bringing hope and beauty after the Grey days of winter. So, this month what goals of growth do you see in your future? If you're not sure, we welcome you with open arms to take that next step. So, the next time you see raindrops falling in April and are having a moment of reflection, remember that we here at your State Farm are helping to pave the way for the colorful future that will brighten up the world today and for the future to come.

When I am not at the office, I like to play golf, go boating (I find boating much more relaxing than golfing!) and working out. I also spend a lot of time in my garden during the summer.

For the past 14 years I have been an instructor for Junior Achievement of the Michigan Great Lakes. Each year I teach at least 3 classes in local school districts to empower young people to achieve economic success. My Office and I also participate in our Local Sparta Chamber of Commerce and sponsor some of the community events, such as the Beer and Brat Festival and the Sparta Library Summer Reading Program.
