We are excited to publish our third edition of Henry Watts Real Estate and Life Style Magazine.
In June, we honor our Fathers. Father’s Day started in the United States by Sonora Smart Dodd as a complement to Mother’s Day. Sonora was one of five children from her single father, Civil War Veteran William Jackson Smart. As she attended a Mother’s Day sermon, she realized that Father’s should also be celebrated. Initially, she suggested her father’s birthday, June 5th, to be used as a celebration for all fathers. However, pastors from the Ministerial Alliance suggested that it should be the third Sunday of June and the rest is now history. Today, we continue to celebrate Fathers as we understand that they are one of the major pillars of our societies. For all that you do daily, we wish you a Happy Father’s Day!
This month, we have contributions from many talented and knowledgeable writers that discussed topics such as: What to expect at a real estate closing by Tarik Davis; How a loan modification can save your home in foreclosure by Attorney Carl E. Person; How to relieve stress by decluttering your home by Professor Charlotte Bishop; The Importance of business insurance by Gamal Johnson; Why you need a business consultant by Terry Albert; How to improve your credit score by Bonita White; and Why it’s important to take better care of your health and more specifically, your kidneys by John D. McAllister.
We will also let you in on a couple of secrets by introducing you to an amazing TED Talk about the next big real estate move while discussing some of the best practices to win a bidding war. If you’ve wondered why we named our restaurant Seven, we give you the answer in a short video. To top it all off, the talented Cheryl Foster who is also a CPA shared one of her poems from her book “Not For Women Only! My Life in Poem.”
We would like to give special thanks to our guest writers who have helped bring this month’s edition together. Thanks to family, friends and you, Henry Watts Real Estate and Life Style Magazine continues to grow in content and readership. With each publication, we aim to improve our magazine.
