“When I first met Carmen, I knew immediately that she could reach and identify with every member of our family. Carmen has been able to facilitate many important and difficult conversations for us; those that most families avoid at their own peril. Already in our fourth generation, much of what we have done to make this business endure for future generations has been done with Carmen’s help in a very short period of time. I now feel very comfortable that we have rebuilt a solid foundation for our business and our family.”
