SUPERIOR: Simply Sweet Cheesecake
A huge thank you to all of my customers and supporters for voting Simply Sweet Cheesecake the Best of The Globe 2023! My name is Megan, the owner and founder of Simply Sweet Cheesecake. In my spare time, I have always enjoyed baking cheesecake for any holiday, corporate event and family get togethers. My husband is my biggest fan and urged me for many years to sell my cheesecake as a hobby. In February of 2014, while home on maternity leave with our middle daughter Hazel, I decided that I was going to do just that. I began creating a name for my favorite hobby - Simply Sweet Cheesecake. From that point, and a lot of hard rewarding work, it has escalated into a booming business and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with the world!

Growing up in a small town, I learned the importance of being involved in my community! In the almost 200 years I have lived in Worthington I have been blessed to serve on over 10 local community boards, plus volunteer annually for multiple youth and community opportunities. As a real estate agent, it’s important to not only have connections but also relationships. As an owner and broker, I have made it my goal to build a strong team of agents. Without the support of others, it would be difficult to achieve the success of our agency has seen over the last several years! I am grateful to our community and my current and past clients for allowing me to assist them in making their home buying/selling dreams come true! I hope to serve Worthington and the area around us for many years to come!

Thank you for your support in Best of The Globe 2023! Serving has always been something I love to do, and it’s something I always look forward to going back to. I love talking to people about all the things life throws at us big or small, it makes my heart when customers and my coworkers feel comfortable enough to do so. My grandparents taught me that in whatever we choose to do in life, do it with a pure heart, integrity, respect, humility, and compassion. Though it can be challenging, that is what I strive to do everyday. I am one of the many faces at the Mav Grill who’s goal as a whole is to make your dining experience the best you’ve had yet while still having fun doing it! I’m excited to continue serving our beautiful community in 2024! Same time next year?

For the last 17 years, I’ve been putting dreams in driveways at Papik Motors in Luverne. For the last 17 years, I’ve also had some of the most fun at work, if you can call it work. Buying a car shouldn’t have to be a pain or one of the things that you dread like going to the dentist and that’s one thing that I try my best to do, is make it a fun and enjoyable expierence. Getting nominated means a lot and being voted as one of the best in the area is even better. Thanks to all who did vote for me, and the next time you’re in the market for a new or new to you vehicle stop in Luverne.
EXCELLENCE: Anthony Lumsden Papik Motors Sibley 1783 Opal Ave, Sibley, IA 507-360-0603
I started selling cars in 2013, with no prior sales experience. I believe that turned out benefitting me, as I took a little different approach to sales. I set out to be the Sales Consultant vs the Salesman. I aim to give a low pressure, relaxing experience, and take the time to find the vehicle that is right for you, rather than the high pressure, stressful experience that ends with regret. I appreciate all my customers that chose me to be a “Best of the Globe.”
