A couple of weeks ago I was visiting my Mom and Dad's Grave and decided to go for a walk. I noticed a headstone that had many rabbit statues and artifacts all around it. Now when I noticed this I was behind the stone. As I walked around the front I backed up to take a photo of the bunny's for a friend of mine who goes ape over bunny rabbits plus my daughters love them as well so why not take a photo.
This photo was taken in the North Church Cemetary on Route 94 Hardyston, NJ
Notice Mr. or Mrs. Bunny Rabbit in the Back round wasn't there a minute ago!
Spirits are Real and so is GOD!

"Gary helped us find our Dream Home! We couldn't afford much and everyone else made us believe we could not buy anything out their. They all laughed and whispered, we could tell it was aimed at us. Then we called Gary he had us meet him at his office, he explained our options, told us what bills to pay off and down to boost the amount we could qualify for. And then he listend to our needs and then found us our Dream Home." "Thank you Gary, we love you" Dave & Lisa K.
"Gary was a regular at our place of business. One day we found out he was a Realtor with his first baby on his way and we decided to give him a try! We told him exactly what we were looking for. He searched the MLS and found nothing. He asked us to be patient with him and he'll get back to us." " The property we were looking for was not on the market, Gary went around the neighborhoods looking for properties that fit our description and then asked the people if they wanted to sell, he kept at it until he found us the perfect home." "Gary is a great Realtor and now our Friend! he is a caring,good humored, and loves helping people. We recommend him to our friends always." Pat & Ann

Gary,
We just wanted to say thank you for making the recent sale of our condo a pleasant experience. We really appreciated your professionalism and obvious time and effort made to get our listing advertised in various media and web sites. We also appreciated your no-pressure advise for ways to help the sale. It was without a doubt the best Realtor experience we've had to date. We will be sure to recommend you to our family and friends.
Thanks and all the best,
Greg and Lisa Colombo
My house was on the market with several Realtors before I met Gary, I was going through a bitter Divorce and was about to lose my house through foreclosure, I was working constantly and was never home to interview Realtors who wanted to meet me at my house. Gary understood what I was going through and met me at my place of business he had all the usual Realtor forms and ones I've never seen before from a Realtor! Gary explained to me that he was going to get my bank to work with me instead of against me and these papers were for me to give my permission to act on my behalf.
I could see that Gary was a unique Realtor and I decided to go ahead with him. I was at my witts end, everyone else promissed me things and didn't deliver and it cost me time and loads of money.
Gary went to work right away, he actually did get the bank to postpone a foreclosure action! I don't know how but he did. Then he marketed the heck out of my property and got on the phone calling everyone he knew I know this because I walked in on him one night when he was at his office he didn't know I was there and all the while he was trying to sell my house.
Finally about 13 days later "13" Gary calls me at work and say's Scott I need you to sign some papers for me, upset I said "what are these for" Gary said I've got your house sold! A big relief came over me, when I met with him the purchase price was less than asking and I told Gary I wanted to just get out of the deal but not owe a ton of money to the Bank. Gary said, "Scott, sign the papers the Bank has already agreed to the sale price of the home." During the home inspection everything came up wrong with the property and naturally the buyer wanted it fixed and Gary convinced the Buyers they weren't getting anything out of me.
When Gary contacted me after the sale of the property and asked me to write a Testimonial for him I was only to Glad to help out. Gary did everything he said he would do, he was very laid back when dealing with me but I found out, he was a Pit Bull when it came to negotiations. I am Truly Grateful for the effort that Gary put fourth for me and will always highly recommend his services. When it comes to experience there is no one better! Thanks again Gary Rocks!! ...S.Horvath
Gary - Dorene - that would be multi-tasking at its ultimate!
