Happy Monday Duratus Team!
I have both some sad and happy news to share today.
First, as you know, today Brandon, Aziz, and I will be supporting Scott by attending the funeral for his wife, Shelby Diane Smith. Here is her obituary, and if you have a moment, stop and say a prayer for her, Scott, and their family today.
Second, today is DURATUS’ 6TH BIRTHDAY!
I officially started Duratus Properties on March 11th, 2018, so our company is 6 years old today. Hooray!
