Our Condolences 

In the past week we have lost influential members of the REALTOR community, Bob Guehler from Sandwich and Cliff Swalley, 1977 President of the Aurora Board of REALTORS as well as Vic Popp, 1971 President of the Aurora Board. Their contributions helped to shape the industry in our market place and they will be missed.
