A family tradition of New Year's Resolutions

Today's reflection

LaVerne Tucker, Robin's mother and Tommy's wife, has always been a strong believer in New Year's Resolutions. As she raised her three children, LaVerne would often request New Year's Resolutions from all her guests during the family's New Year's Day dinner that she often hosts.

To break the ice, she would give a piece of paper to all her guests with the following writing on it written straight down the left side of the 8-1/2 x 11 sheet of paper...

Using the beginning letter, the guest can make a New Year's Resolution statement for each letter, by creating a sentence using each beginning letter for each resolution. By the way, she often would do the same for Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas at other holiday events that LaVerne has hosted over the years. A mother's tradition of New Year's Resolutions and Holiday cheer... one of the many Tucker family traditions celebrated over the years.

Making New Year's Resolutions is healthy, whether one is either formal or informal about it. We encourage you to make your own New Year's Resolutions for 2009. We invite you to make a part of your New Year Resolutions.

We want to thank our customers and clients for their business in 2008 and for those who have been part of our business over the past 50 years. In 2008, we celebrated our 50Th anniversary of service to our community and others throughout the State of Iowa.

In 2009, we look forward to opportunity to serve you or someone you know. Feel free to contact us for a free consultation or meeting to discuss our services.

On behalf of everyone at Tommy Tucker Realty Co. and Professional Management Associates Co., our property management division; we wish you and those close to you, a Happy New Year and the very best in the coming year.

Respectfully submitted by Robin Tucker.
