They have a lower space and I would choose that instead next time. There is no lot for Parking and it was challenging to find a spot but we did finally find a spot on street.”

“Home Repair Services is a awesome service for our area. I have used this service a few times years past . This year I needed my furnace serviced. Had I let my pride rule ,I very well could of lost my house , worst yet my life. Without them I would had froze or go with the house in blaze this winter. Literally saving my life!
Ivelisse was so very kind assiting me in the process of the renewal of application. This jester of her kindness really helps easing the pride of having to ask for help. Drew later followed up making everything move faster due to the cold temps and my health condition. He warmed my heart (pun intended) , Both so very kind. Please to those needing help , reach out , understand that they are others in need as well , that you are not alone and you are heard . Don't befraid or let pride stand in you way. Tell you story , ask for help and the Angels will flock to your needs. Trust that HomeReapir Services are there always if things seem to move slow know that that is cause they are helping another family. If your call goes unanswered , know that they are busy and know that there is no new news to tell you at this time. These people here are heaven sent and really care for the whole community. Thank you , oh so very much !”

“AgrAbility is amazing. They have helped my grandmother be able to continue running her farm in face of her disabilities. Most recently Ned was able install a barn door opener allowing her to go in out of her Barn without constantly getting on and off equipment (Which is getting increasingly difficult). Not only has this made my grandmothers day to day living easier but has also given our family some great peace of mind. Thank you Ned and AgriAbility!”
“Their book selection is personally vetted by Dr. Joel Beeke and I think it is a very solid selection. I’ve bought a few books and other items there. The prices are list price or better. I bought a “damaged” version of Nine Marks of a Healthy Church for $12 (normally $22.50) which was not very damaged at all.”
