Getting peace of mind while on vacation

A big thank you goes out to Arroyo Grande Neighborhood Service Technician Lawrence Armstrong for making regular checks on our house while we were away on vacation.

Our neighborhood service technician made daily visits to our home to make sure it was safe and secure, then personally followed up with us to make sure everything was OK after we returned home.

Thank you, Arroyo Grande police Chief Steven Annibali for the follow-up letter with record of service visits. What a wonderful community service this is to offer homeowners! It gave us some peace of mind while we were away to know our house was being watched, and we could not be happier with the service.

Steve and Lori Hall, Arroyo Grande
