Trevor come to repair our furnace and did a very professional job. He works hard and has a great positive personality. Keep him on the job, please. Patrick and Dottie McCarthy

It is on these heavy snow days that the warmth of the Preserve staff shines! Trevor got to work quickly to ensure the sidewalks and walkways were cleared and safe. He gave everyone a good morning greeting as they passed by. When you have a mobility situation - it makes all the difference. Stopped at the front office and Stephanie greeted me with a smile (she always does!) and offered a hot cup of coffee. Her customer service skills are outstanding. Coupled with the fact she has lived at the Preserve for several years and calls it her home makes a big difference when explaining a situation to her.
