RAISING THE ROOF IN THE INDUSTRY

BY AMY BETH DOBBINS

W

ith close to fifty years of combined experience in the roofing business, these four childhood friends—Cass Benner, Ricky Stanley, Brad Parson and Chris Merriott— struck out on their own to start NuRoof & Construction. With stiff competition in the field, their business philosophy was simple: provide a topnotch experience to the customer through quality workmanship, superior products and, above all else, integrity.

Committed to customer service, the company staffs an internal claims specialist, someone dedicated to assisting a customer through the

entire insurance claim filing process. The partners are also available to meet onsite with an insurance adjustor to walk through any inspection, making sure that a repair need is not neglected. Additionally, NuRoof offers a free inspection wherein the customer is given honest feedback as to whether or not it is even beneficial for him to place an insurance claim depending on the level of a needed repair.

When contracted for a job, NuRoof & Construction does not accept payment until the job is completed.

In addition to re-roofing services, NuRoof & Construction handles roofing for new construction as well as

concrete work, guttering and painting. Whatever the job, NuRoof prides itself in being hands-on from start to finish. “We do everything in a timely manner…it is a quick turnaround, and we do not cut corners,” explains Cass Benner. Every roof comes with a ten year warranty as to workmanship. Further, the partners at NuRoof are dedicated to continual improvement, undergoing continuing education on a regular basis to stay abreast of new and changing products and materials.

The results? NuRoof & Construction continues to grow and flourish, becoming a leader in the industry. “We now have five full-time sales reps

and three full crews,” notes Cass Benner. They are also expanding their space with a new office currently under construction.

The company is also making its mark on the community as a whole, supporting the local police and fire departments as well as contributing and sponsoring other needs that come its way.

With hard work and dedication to integrity coming standard in every bid, it is little wonder that NuRoof continues to take the roofing industry throughout Northeastern Oklahoma by storm.

ISN’T IT TIME TO BECOME AN RV OWNER?

BY DUANE BLANKENSHIP

raig Goldrich grew up in New York City and has had a most interesting past leading him to his current position as owner of four Tulsa RV locations. His journey has included that of car salesman, a traveling RV salesman on the east coast and travels to many regional and national RV expos in the far western part of the country.

While traveling through Oklahoma one year, Goldrich was forced to stop in the Tulsa area for repairs on his own fifth wheel.

While visiting with the owner of the repair shop, Goldrich said, “Selling RVs is what I do.” The shop’s main business was repairs and service, but the owner confided that he did have some consignments on his lot. One thing led to another, the owner was impressed with Craig and his knowledge of the RV industry, so he offered him a job. Goldrich accepted and was now an Okie.

Seven years ago Goldrich had the opportunity to purchase the lease and Tulsa RV name. Today there are four Tulsa RV locations: The West lot specializes in sales, parts and service and is located at 15525 E Admiral Pl in Tulsa; The Pre-Owned lot does sales of used and consignment units and is located at 16711 E Admiral Pl in Tulsa; the East lot provides sales and service and is located at 20213 E Admiral Pl in Catoosa; and the newest, recently opened facility

Q & A with Financial Advisor Linda Rainwater Q: A:

My wife and I are ready to plan our retirement. She is 52 and I am 49 years old. How do I know if I’m ready to retire? Mulling it over Michael Michael, this is such an important question! There are several ways you can approach retirement. Statistically, *36% of people don’t plan for it at all and depend entirely on social security for their income. Some do it all by themselves and miss several significant factors, since only *4% of Americans have saved enough for retirement. I think it is best to have a professional help coach you through this important transition, enabling you to have a fun and fulfilling retirement.

You should make an appointment with a financial advisor, bringing all your pertinent financial information.

The advisor will ask questions to determine your relationship with money, your goals, and ascertain your spending style. They should also ask about tolerance for risk, retirement target date, current debt obligations, investment assets (401k’s, IRA’s, annuities, stocks, and CDs), current taxes, emergency funds, present income, family members who may need your help, and review life insurance and long term care insurance. I review Social Security options and show the difference between 7 scenarios. Social Security is more complex than just selecting the age to start taking income. Sometimes it is best to use investment assets for income and delay Social Security. Everyone is different. It depends on how you spend money and various life events you may face.

An advisor should meet with you at least once a year until you are ready to retire successfully. They can provide annual input for how much you should adjust your investing and how it will impact your target date.

They will let you know your goal for spending in retirement (your “Number”). As you get closer to your target date, they should schedule meetings with you more often for a smooth transition. After retirement, they should continue to review your finances to help you maintain and enjoy your comfortable lifestyle.

BIGGER SELECTION EXCITING UPGRADES

BY DANA PUGH

wasso Liquor & Wine has been serving Owasso’s retail liquor needs since 1991. With their constantly changing inventory and an incredibly friendly and helpful staff, shopping at Owasso Liquor & Wine is an experience like no other. The store is 10,000 square feet chock full of beer, liquor and wine products that range from everyday favorites to something entirely new and unique.

The vast selection is impressive and it is also constantly growing and changing. Customers are encouraged to come

O

in and explore the store to see all that they have to offer.

“Take a look at this inventory and it’s word class,” said Andy O’Neal, who runs the family business with his twin brother Scott O’Neal.

“We’re not striving to be number one just in Owasso, we’re striving to be number one in the state of Oklahoma. Right now we’re expanding our wine and liquor selection, and we’re expecting new beers to come in any time.”

Customer service has always been the number one goal at Owasso Liquor & Wine, and the outstanding

selection is just a part of their commitment to their customers. Andy said that they strive to stock every beer that’s available for sale in the state of Oklahoma, and if they don’t have what you’re looking for they will special order most products in just one working day.

Andy and his staff are gearing up for any upcoming changes to Oklahoma’s liquor laws, and there are some exciting upgrades in the works. Depending on upcoming changes to the existing laws, Andy said they are looking forward to potentially adding Sunday sales,

longer hours and refrigeration in the store, and that they are also sketching out ideas for a new store layout. They are planning to implement the changes as soon as the

laws are changed.

“We’re kind of curious about how they’re going to write the laws so we can get this thing started, because we’re ready to go,” he added.

Owasso Liquor & Wine’s mix and match bottles allow customers try a variety of products.

The family-owned and operated business is a welcoming hometown store for customers from Owasso, and Andy said that customers also come from all over the area to shop the expansive inventory. The O’Neals are proud to be members of the Owasso community, and they generously offer weddings, special events and special orders at cost as a way to give back and to help local charity events succeed.

“We are probably the only

liquor store in Owasso that is actually from Owasso, currently living in Owasso, and run by an Owasso Family,” said Andy. “My wife works here, my brother-in-law works here, and my twin and I are the owners.

We used our experience from the wholesale beer business to expand into the retail liquor establishment that we are today.”

Andy says that if you haven’t been to Owasso Liquor & Wine recently, come in to check them out because they’re doing some exciting things.

FISHING, FOOD AND FUN

BY DUANE BLANKENSHIP

ean Kinzer, known as Mr. Dean by most of his patrons, is the Owner of Winganon Cafe & Bait.

The store is located in the Winganon Community just east of the Winganon Bridge on Lake Oologah.

I can honestly say that Dean is one of the nicest men I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. But, how can you not like a man who loves fishing and Barbeque?

Winganon Cafe & Bait is home to really great hickory smoked barbeque, select grocery items, a full line of fishing tackle including excellent catfish and crappie rigs, and the most popular live baits and

D

frozen baits. There is an adjacent, full-hookup (30 or 50 amp) RV Park with rental trailers and nine storage units available.

The Winganon community was established in the late 1800s, long before Oklahoma gained statehood in 1907.

When asked how many residents currently live in Winganon, Mr. Dean pointed to his store-front sign. The sign boasts, “Population: NVM,” to which Mr. Dean replied, “Not very many!” A few years ago, Mr. Dean received a Christmas card that had a painting of a warm, inviting little general store. He liked

what he saw and pinned the card to his bulletin board thinking that one day he would like to give his store a face-lift resembling the store on the card. Three years later he did just that.

The Winganon cafe menu features items that include hickory smoked ribs, brisket and bologna, chicken, shrimp and fish, hamburgers, burritos, hot and cold sandwiches, breakfast selections and a variety of side dishes.

They also provide carryout and catering services.

The store is open every day from sunup to sunset and all items on the menu may be ordered any time of day.

“We like to accommodate

our customers with good food anytime they’re hungry. And we generally save them money on fishing equipment purchases,” said Mr. Dean.

If you like to crappie fish, you’ll want to check out Winganon Cafe & Bait Shop’s Annual Crappie Tournament that runs each March, April and May. It ensures a 100% cash payback plus added money for each monthly winner.

You can also enter the grand prize competition, which awards cash for the aggregate total weight over the three-month period.

Talk with Mr. Dean for complete details.

Mr. Dean and his Winganon Cafe & Bait staff like people and genuinely enjoy providing customers with four of the basics of a great outing…fishing, camping, fellowship and great hickory smoked barbeque! If you like to fish or eat, venture a little off the beaten path and check out the Winganon Cafe & Bait Store. Mr. Dean and his friendly staff will be at the door welcoming you!

WINGANON CAFE & BAIT

Mr. Dean takes pride in his handmade Dean “O” Baits. Word has it that they are great at attracting the big ones.

JUDY KNOWS SOMETHING ABOUT SAVING SENIORS

BY CHRISTOPHER BEACH & GINGER FORD

ust ask 67-year-old Judy whether or not one person in one company can make a difference. Her agent, Amy Davis, made that difference for her and now Ms. Judy is passing it on making a difference in many seniors’ lives each week.

When Judy started working for Pioneer Financial Group two years ago, she was just about to turn 65.

Her agent helped her find the best Medicare supplement and drug plan for her budget. Just months later, she discovered her cancer from six years earlier had come back.

The Medicare Supplement covered all of her out of pocket expenses and her drug plan covered her prescriptions, including a very expensive trial drug saving her thousands of dollars. Judy is now in remission and continues to work with Pioneer Financial Group on the phone offering seniors Medicare Supplement comparisons.

“All of this happened to me for a reason,” Judy says. “Why I was

J

placed here to work, why I survived cancer … now I can be here every day to help other people.”

Because she has a Medicare Supplement herself, Judy understands the needs and concerns of the senior market. Her best advice to seniors is: 1) Never call an 800 number to sign up for insurance. An 800 number is not an advocate when you have a problem with your Medicare supplement or have an insurance need. You need an agent.

2) Never enroll with a company that sells only one product. The insurance company will never call you when you have a price increase. At Pioneer, we are a broker appointed with multiple companies and can shop many options to make sure your needs are met at a cost that is right for you. If you have any increase, we can shop to find you a better rate with another company. We work for you, not the insurance company.

3) Never enroll in an Advantage Plan.

If you have an illness, the out of pocket expenses can be exorbitant.

As a cancer survivor, Ms. Judy knows how valuable an agent can be. Not only will an agent assist you in

The Pioneer Financial Group team can help you set up the same type of Medicare Supplements that saved employee Judy’s life. From L to R: Mark Davis, Judy, Ginger Ford, and Matt Durrum.

Judy’s testimony shows why a company like Pioneer Financial Group is crucial.

choosing the right supplement, but that agent will also be there to keep the cost of your supplement and prescription drug plan down and shop it if you have an increase. This could be a savings of hundreds of dollars each year.

Thirteen years ago, Jason and Ginger Ford started Pioneer Financial group after they’d been in the insurance business for more than 10 years. They had ideas and values about what a company serving seniors should be. Their goal is to meet the financial and insurance needs of the senior market including Medicare supplements, financial planning, home and auto, commercial, longterm care and life insurance.

Pioneer Financial Group is a local firm with agents across the state. One of our agents would love to be that difference maker for you.

FINANCIALLY FIT SIX MONEY TIPS TEENS NEED

BY JOCELYN WOOD

s your child leaving the nest?

Do they fully understand the daily financial issues that will soon become their reality? It’s never too early to start the conversation.

Here are six money tips to teach your children before they leave home.

I

KNOW THE REAL COST OF THINGS The price tag is rarely the actual cost. Talk about hidden fees, taxes and interest. Talk about personal expenses – utilities, car payments, mortgage, and unexpected purchases that can lead to financial trouble if you don’t plan for them, like auto repairs and medical expenses.

LEARN TO BUDGET Building wealth is not about how much money you make, it’s about how you manage the money you have. Money flows out faster than it flows in. Learn to spend less than you earn. Plan for purchases, comparison shop, negotiate terms and fees and save up money before buying things.

TO KNOW BEFORE THEY LEAVE HOME

NEEDS AND WANTS ARE NOT THE SAME THING You will never have enough money to buy everything you want. Choose wisely. Is instant gratification more or less important than a comfortable lifestyle? Today’s choices will affect your future financial well-being.

Again, share stories of choices and consequences.

LEARN THE SECRET TO SAVING The easiest way to build wealth is to set up automatic savings.

Enroll in payroll direct deposit.

Schedule recurring automatic money transfers from checking to savings. Start small and increase with pay raises. If you learn to put money aside and live below your means when you are young, it will be easier to build wealth as you move up the ladder.

BE VERY CAREFUL WITH CREDIT CARDS Talk about the pros and cons of credit cards. One missed credit card payment can set you on a course toward long-term debt. Misuse of credit cards can also hurt your ability to take out a loan for a car or house. Don’t be afraid to share your personal experience with credit card misuse or debt and the sacrifices you had to make to rise above it.

VALUES

OWASSO & COLLINSVILLE JUNE 2017

CONSIDER YOUR FUTURE Most adults in or nearing retirement wish they had saved more money. Nearly half of Americans have no retirement savings and still have to work when they are 70 and 80 years old.

The younger you start saving, the greater control you’ll have over your financial well-being. Talk to your teens about your personal retirement preparations.

However you decide to prep your kids for the real world, be sure money is a topic of conversation.

f you’re planning your own Fourth of July celebration this year, the Castle of Muskogee has the fireworks to get your party started with a bang!

Family founded, locally operated and community oriented, the Castle Fireworks is the perfect place to design your own patriotic tribute to our country.

The Castle has 37,000 square feet of retail space filled to the rafters with prices that fit any budget. From novelty fireworks for smaller children to some of the biggest displays around, their selection of more than 590 different items is huge. Even better, their fireworks sale supports the community as a perfect summer job for local high school students.

Each year, the Castle provides more than 150 employment

opportunities to local teens during their summer break. They receive training in customer service and they learn to work in a retail environment, boosting their resumes and giving them valuable work experience that will help them build bright futures.

“Leading up to the season, these kids are able to work on assembling the assortments, and they’re learning more about the fireworks as they go,” said Matt Hiller, owner of the Castle of Muskogee. “Then, they’re able to be knowledgeable, helpful fireworks sales people when it comes time to be on the sales floor.”

Those helpful young sales people will be available to answer your questions and to handle your fireworks until you check out. While you’re shopping, use your phone to scan the QR codes found on product signage to see videos of the different types of firework in action.

Choose your old favorites or try something new from the huge selection of pre-bundled

The Castle inspects fireworks through the American Fireworks Standards Laboratory before they leave China to assure your safety.

All fireworks are inspected again by the Consumer Product Safety Commission once they get to the United States.

“We guarantee all of our fireworks, said Hiller. “I’m here on the 5th of July with a full money back guarantee. If an item fails to light, bring it back, it’s guaranteed.

We take very good care of our fireworks. The fireworks are in better shape when they come out of our warehouse and get to the showroom floor than they were in when we got them.”

The Castle is air-conditioned, with accessible restrooms, plenty of paved parking and knowledgeable and friendly sales people to assist you. The annual fireworks sale lasts from June 15th through July 5th, with special discount pricing throughout the showroom.

When you can shop in a Castle, why shop anywhere else?

grandparents, Ruby and Harley Swan, Sr., originally started the dairy with only one cow and a lot of determination.

Most important to the Williamsons is the quality of each product they offer. The cleanliness of their equipment and facilities as well as the overall health of their livestock is top-notch. So high are the standards of Swan Bros., in fact, that it is one of only two dairies in Oklahoma certified to offer raw milk for purchase by the public. “Raw milk is richer, tastier and all-natural with no added preservatives or colorings,� opines Diane.

The cattle are not subjected to growth hormones, nor is the grazed pastureland treated with chemical pesticides.

Unlike other larger, corporate operations, the livestock graze

freely in open pasture, only being held within a pen or barn during milking times.

The raw milk, fresh from farm to table, is available for purchase in whole and low-fat varieties, exclusively, onsite at the dairy.

Customers will also find cheeses that are crafted from the Grade A milk, including varieties of Cheddar, Colby and Mozzarella. The cheeses may be purchased onsite or ordered online and shipped to you.

Swan Bros. Dairy, Inc. is also an active member of the Made in Oklahoma Coalition and the Oklahoma Dairy Producers Association and serves as a vendor at the Rose District Farmers Market in Broken Arrow

on most Saturdays, April thru October, as well as at other local events.

Proud of their homegrown heritage and the goods produced, the Williamsons hope to raise awareness of the dairy industry during June which is National Dairy Month. To that end, Swan Bros. Dairy, Inc. will host a limited number of tours on select dates, beginning in June and running through August.

The tours will need to be reserved and paid for in advance in that space is extremely limited.
