Thank you Doug and Dina. You guys are doing a wonderful job growing your business. Stay true to your morals and don't let anyone get in the way of your dreams! :o)

Sometimes people don't like to be hugged out of the clear blue, in fact it is creepy when you don't even know the lady. Keep your hands to yourself

Divorce was a blessing in disquise. I hope women out there that are in an unhealthy relationship, can find strenghth in themselves to move on and grow stronger :o)

Thank You Ron. I am honored to know you as well :o)

AMEN! I am glad to see someone else who thinks this lady is shady as well!

I am not nice to illegal moving companies!!! I am proud that I am firm against unlicensed movers and will continue to protect innocent victims from them!!! Buyers Beware!!! Please do your homework before you allow anyone in your home. :o)

We used LOL Moving back in early '06 and were very happy with them. I think it's a shame that anyone would cast aspersions without providing any specifics.

I haven't dealt with Rene Van Hout, personally, but she is a supporter of Paula O'Neil all the way and that is what I find Questionable. I am running against Paula O'Neil for clerk of the court. O'Neil was my inspiration to run against her and what I have seen at the clerk's offices is not right at all. I am now trying to get access to the open government (financial records at the clerk's office) and public records and you would not believe the horrendous bureaucracy they are putting me through. They even want to charge me about $22,000 dollars for copies of the records since O'Neil took office in 2008. Either that, or they want to charge me almost $13.00 an hour to view them. Outrageous! Talk about hiding information. Anyone that supports O'Neil, I find very, very questionable. Cutting is my name and cutting is what I plan to do, including cutting corruption, cutting wasteful spending, cutting bureaucracy by having an open door policy, and even cutting my salary and giving it back to the people of the county. I have a system on how I will do this. I am huge on open overnment and huge on public records. Nothing allowable by law will be hidden from your view as long as I am clerk of court.

I have only spoken to her on the phone, but she is as unprofessional as they come. I called with a legitimate complaint about my moving service and the employees she sent out to do it, and she immediately took offense and threw the blame back on me! Needless to say, she was not apologetic or accommodating, and I will NEVER do business with her again. She charged me full price for half of the work, and I will never recommend that business to anyone!

Thanks Don! Flato and Alefoxx are ficticious names, because they don't want to reveil themselves, therefore discrediting them. Illegal movers don't like those of us that are licensed, insured, and reputible. I am very close to key people in the county that shut them down. Keep your eye on Chanel 10 Investigative News' Consumer Watch!

Thank You Mark. The people using ficticious names are not credible people. I will let my reputation speak for itself. Life has taught me that there will always be people out there that will try to pull you down, no matter how hard you work.

Thank You Beth.I love every minute I volunteer with you, no matter where it is or what we are doing!

I appreciate the kind words April. If I am known for my hugs..... I'll take that any day!!!! :o) I Iove how you and Les think like Wes and I... Doing what's right, because it's the right thing to do! :o)

Thank You Stacey. We have put our heart and soul into making our business what it is today. Our team is the best of the best. We are honored and humbled to receive such praises from the community we are so committed to :o)

Thank You Connie :o)
Sometimes something as simple as a smile can turn someones frown upside-down!

Thanks Brian :o)
You get TWO hugs next time I see you! :o)

Thank You Terri *sniffle sniffle*. I have always put athers before muself. It was how I was raised. You too put others before yourself. I don't know how you do as much as you do... Realtor, Mom, Master Of Ceremonies, volunteer, community advocate, etc... geez :o)

We are honored to know such a devoted Deputy in the Sheriff Office. We appreciate you. Every day you risk your life for our citizens. Thanks Larry.

Thanks Cindy :o) I strongly believe that there are no strangers out there... they're just friends you haven't met yet!!!
I also believe in Karma. I like to stay on Karma's good side :o)

Thank You for your business and your trust Terri.
I have learned over the years that you can not make everyone happy all the time, no matter how hard you try :o(
Besides the unhappys were not credible sources, so I'm not going to lose any sleep over it!!! :o)

The one thing that isn't right with Nocco is that Nocco hired Paula O'neil's son and O'Neil hired someone connected to Nocco's office. Talk about conflicts of interest and favortism. The sheriff hired the clerk's son and she hired someone connected to the sheriff's office. The article is on Tampabay.com and was published on July 1, 2010. Some people were not happy about it and I can fully understand why.

Hi John,
Thank you for caring enough to express yourself. It's great to live in a country that gives us that freedom.
I was rasied in an Italian family, so hugs come naturally for me :o) Wes loves that I make people smile with such a simple jesture :o)
I was one of over 100 people who's sign got stolen. It's a shame that people would do something so petty. Unfortunitely, all candidates had this problem :o(
The honorary mayors race is an annual fund raiser, in which I raised over $6000 in four months for the chamber. I am proud of my contribution and don't see any failure in being part of it.
Thank You for voting for Chris! I was honored when I was asked to be a campaign leader, which required alot of my time, and was a lot of hard work, but in the end it was worth it. :o)
