Friends and Family ~ Many of you may know that Greg and I have closed the doors of Turf Services under the advice of our Lawyer. Even though Greg was able to more than double sales and services of Turf Services (even with a drought the first year) we’ve chosen to let a Federal Trustee handle the fraudulent sale of the business. I’m happy to share with you that all is going well and we’re patient knowing the process will care for people who choose to take advantage of decent individuals. In any case, Greg is now looking for employment, so I’m sharing his resume for your viewing pleasure. If you know of anyone hiring that fits Greg’s skills, please let us know. Sheri Gregory J.
