I would like to introduce Diane Griffin, our newest Active Rain member.

grand rapids: ThemThem to Robert Brown - 05/13/08 02:13 PM
Robert Brown is an excellent blogger who pays it forward. If you look at his comments made he has doubled the comments received. Looking over many Active Rainers, this is a rarity I have found.
I have never met Robert "yet" I feel as if I know him personally.
Robert is a man of faith who loves and cherishes his Mom and daughters. He has paid some nice ThemThem tributes to each of them.
Robert and I have become the basket ball game of Active Rainers in Michigan, exchanging leads in our rankings almost daily. I know he motivates me to jump … (28 comments)

grand rapids: My Brother from another Mother. - 04/22/08 11:13 AM
I wanted to share a caring, energetic individual with the Active Rain family.
Bruce Bylsma deserves a big ThemThem from myself. Bruce and his wife Jan both worked for me for quite a few years. The positive flow into our office during their time was unbelievable. They each made it a joy to go to work.
Bruce handled the sales team and implemented many programs to make the business run smooth. I was sad to see the day he moved on to Sable Homes in our area. The offer he received was one he couldn't turn down. I can still remember the day … (20 comments)

grand rapids: ThemThem to Tammy Stone of Grand Rapids - 04/19/08 01:50 PM
I met Tammy Stone for the first time today during a tour of a condo with my daughter.
Tammy is a delightful lady and full of energy. She presented the condo nicely during a walk though and explained the features of the unit, along with the back ground of the building that was built in 1900.
Her follow up has been suburb. I would highly recommend Tammy's service to anyone looking to purchase or sell in the Greater Grand Rapids, MI area.
Tammy is an agent at Flexit Realty. Great job Tammy and keep up the excellent customer service. I was impressed!
