Memorial Day is much more than a long weekend, summer kick-off picnics and the Indy 500. Memorial Day is a day to remember all those men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice; those who died in military service to our country. In between all the fun this weekend, take a moment to remember them, too. Watch [...]

Why Memorial Day?
May 28, 2012Thank you Thursday
May 24, 2012Last night, our daughter was recognized as one of Central Ohio’s “Forty Under 40.” It was a great honor for Heather, of course, and we are very proud of her.

Tuesday Tidbit
April 24, 2012A different kind of Tuesday Tidbit today… Tomorrow is Administrative Professionals Day. I don’t think our office is any different than most when it comes to the value of our administrative professional, a.k.a. Stacie*. Anyone who needs to know almost anything, find almost anyone, or generally accomplish the impossible knows that she is one to count on. She handles a [...]
Thank you Thursday
April 19, 2012I’m sure the news of Dick Clark’s passing yesterday brought back many memories for a lot of people. There are many younger people who only know Dick Clark as the host of New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, or maybe they’ve seen Dick Clark Productions named in the credits of game shows or award shows. But, before Times Square, before the [...]
Sunday Service – Red Cross Tornado Response
April 15, 2012The post below originally published just six weeks ago. Once again, however, the American Red Cross has mobilized its tornado response and they need our help.

Sunday Service – Blankets for Syria
April 1, 2012If you’ve paid attention to international news lately, you know that there is serious conflict happening in Syria. This conflict has led many Syrians to abandon their homes, seeking refuge in neighboring countries. Earlier this week, I got the email below from the United Nations Refugee Agency. I can’t add anything more that would make a [...]
Sunday Service – The Ireland Fund
March 18, 2012St. Patrick’s Day might be over, but you can continue to honor your Irish heritage by supporting The Ireland Funds, “the global Irish making a difference together.” In addition to eleven other worldwide Ireland Fund organizations, the largest is right here in the United States, with twelve chapters across the country. For 35 years, the American [...]
Sunday Service – Red Cross Tornado Response
March 4, 2012Continuing a nearly seventy year tradition, the President issued a proclamation declaring March to be American Red Cross month. How incredible then that, just three days in to the month, the organization’s disaster services are desperately needed. The Red Cross has mobilized to provide emergency assistance in eleven states hit by Friday’s tornado outbreak. By Friday evening, their quick response teams had [...]
