HOMELESS GRADUATING
SENIORS
By Doris Reisinger
Don’t miss Monday Coffee on March 13, as Vickie
Griffiths will be in attendance for her presentation.
She will also be bringing a special guest, Julio Caba,
who was homeless in high school but went on to a
very successful career with help from people who
cared. He now comes back every year to speak at the
graduation party for these homeless students. He will
also speak about another more recent success story
from Polk County! The count of homeless students
graduating this year is 135, of which 50 have no
family! Make sure and sign the banner of
congratulations. Any donation large or small is greatly
appreciated. Checks, gift cards or domestic items can
be dropped off at the Clubhouse or HFC Activities
Offices, or you can contact Doris directly
at miker0343@yahoo.com or 217-652-6636.

Thornhill Wealth Management
Second Opinion Service
Exclusively for Lake Ashton residents
With the volatility of today’s markets and uncertainty of tomorrow’s economy, you
may be wondering if you’re still on track to meet your financial goals. Whether you’re
working with an advisor or personally managing your finances, it never hurts to get a
second opinion.
Our Second Opinion Service can help you, or someone you care about, feel more
confident in the future.
Conley Thornhill, CFP®
What to expect
We’ll meet with you for an in-depth conversation to get to know you and your unique
situation. We’ll then gather the necessary documents to analyze your financials, including:
current investments, risk exposure, tax liability, fees and charges. We’ll then invite you
back to share our findings on where you are now, and where you’re headed. From there,
one of three things will happen:
1. We confirm you’re on track and advise you to stay the course.
2. We find that you could better your situation and feel we could offer alternative
strategies that better address your needs.
3. We find gaps in your current plan, but don’t feel we are the best fit. We’ll be happy
to recommend another advisor who can help.
