| We
have been in Payson for 20 years. We run a
very busy auto glass business and bicycling
is therapy-along with family and church. We
are a close family of 5 with one 16 year old
daughter, Jessa, still living at home.
Our
married kids come home often for family parties.
Our children are all best friends. We are
just hardworking, ordinary people.
We
are veterans in customer relations and look
forward to getting to know you and providing
a great bicycling experience. |
