What is our background?

Our practice began in 1953 when Conrad Jongewaard retired from his career in the YMCA and entered the Financial Services. Upon Conrad's death in 1963, his son Bernard (Bernie) left his career with the YMCA to carry on his fathers practice.

In 1984 Bernie was a founding member of the Broker / Dealer Associated Securities.

In 1994 Bernie's son Mark left a decade long career in Transportation Management to join the Family practice.

Today Mark continues the third generation of financial advice to families and business owners.
