Exit Lakeshore Reality

My name is Marilyn Forton and I am a residential Realtor with Exit Lakeshore Reality. The thing that sets me apart from all the other Realtors in Muskegon is my heartfelt passion for helping my clients. Whether it be buying a home or selling the home they live in, I do everything in my power to help them achieve their goals. I help them from the 1st step to the final closing; financing, inspections, appraisals, gathering all of their documents for the title office. You name it; I help them take care of it. I have found my buyers grant money when their lenders have told them that they don’t qualify. I guess if there was one word that best describes me it is “tenacious.” If you want me on your side, I am just a phone call away. Marilyn Forton with exit Lakeshore Reality, “results with integrity.”

J & J Synergies

John Van Lente - Licensed Masters of Social Work offers a family systems life coaching model to address traditional mental health and addictions problems. I also offer a wellness process to improve couples and parenting functions. In many cases we find ourselves working with families who are in business together and find tasks of the family business offer important grist for the mill to enhance relationships and the bottom line simultaneously. We offer incentives to those seeking family improvement by pricing a $300 dollar per month per family package, removing the barriers to access caused by pricing per hour per person. We find this pro family process in line with traditional family values. For insured persons we are happy to give encounter forms with all the information required by insurance companies for your submission. We are now a PLC in Michigan.

James R. Donley, D.D.S.

In addition to providing all of the conventional dental services such as white fillings, crowns, bridges, root canal therapy, removable partial dentures, cosmetic dentistry, implant buildups and dental hygiene services, I have invested time in studying how to use dental lasers. In many cases, lasers allow us to avoid using the needle to numb people, accelerate healing after surgery and desensitize teeth.  I have taken advanced courses in providing early non-extraction orthodontic treatment to get a more pleasing smile with less time wearing traditional braces.  As an extension of this training I have taken courses in the use of dental appliances to help with sleep apnea problems without a CPAP machine. A dental appliance is the first line of treatment as recommended by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine for mild to moderate sleep apnea and for those who can’t or won’t use a CPAP machine.

As a Center for Dental Medicine, our office focuses on preventative dental health and the treatment of periodontal (gum and bone disease) with the use of lasers and proper home care, reducing the risk for stroke, heart disease, diabetes, cancer and premature babies.

McKenzie-Price Insurance

I am Teresa from McKenzie-Price Agency.

I specialize in home and auto insurance. 

Last month I wrote 3 renters policies.  Most people don’t necessarily think about a renter’s policy.  Once I explain it actually costs less to insure your auto and a renter’s policy than just an auto alone, people are much more receptive to the idea and actually receive the proper coverage.

A good contact for me would be Lake Crest Apartments.  I would like to put renter’s information in their new welcome packet.

McKenzie-Price Agency and we protects your assets. Thank you.

Phyllis' Coffee Plus

Today I would like to tell you about the volatile aromatics which are responsible for a good portion of the flavor of your coffee.  Volatile aromatics are soluble materials that evaporate easily.  They have boiling points that are well below water, and therefore evaporate from the surface of your coffee quickly.  When they evaporate, they take a lot of the flavor with them.

If your coffee is sitting on a burner in a coffee pot, these aromatic flavors are gone within 20 minutes.  If coffee is kept in a container where the pressure can equalize, the process of this evaporation is slowed, and the flavors will hold for 60-90 minutes.

Phyllis’ Coffee Plus is upgrading all of our equipment to coffeemakers that use only air pots which hold your coffee in equalized pressure, and therefore preserve the aromatics in your coffee as long as possible.  We want your second and third cups of coffee to have the same fresh brewed flavor as the first.  Air pots also eliminate burnt coffee pots and worries about whether the coffee pot burner was turned off for the night.

I am looking for businesses that want to offer their staff and customers a quality cup of coffee to enjoy.  I want you to “Savor Your Break.”

The four main areas I utilize to accomplish this are detoxification, nutrition, exercise, and herbal remedies. The human body is an amazing machine that when given the proper fuel and regular tune ups, it has the potential to run extremely well for many years. What this means for individuals is a long and enjoyable life. Through bi-annual cleanses, proper eating, and personal training my clients are able to live the life they want with much energy and a fervor for life. When the occasional illness does creep in, I am able to aid my clients with herbal remedies tailored specifically for their needs.
