Those who know me well, including many good friends, associates and officers at Cassidy Turley, know that I have been considering this decision for several years. If my choice now coincides with anything, it is with Cassidy Turleys move to new space at Centene Plaza in Clayton, a great facility yet, for me, the time seems right to pursue new horizons.
