If you get a card in the mail from the "Annuity Service Center of Medina, OH" don't call them. It's just a fishing expedition. I have not told you about my grandkids for a while so let me get you up to speed. I have a new grandson, Tyler Carrington Thomas. He is probably the best baby ever, maybe with the exception of Kadie and Ethan. He is now about 2 months old and just the happiest boy ever. I got him a $50,000 life insurance policy, and at his age it's only $17 per month. He will be able to use the money in it for college if he needs it. Life insurance is something that no one wants until they either cannot get it or cannot afford it. I also did this for Kadie and Ethan when they were born and now they are 6 and 4. Time sure speeds by. Grandchildren are such a delight and joy. I just do whatever they tell me to do. Well, the economy is growing and while we will probably have a flat market for the summer, I think we will have a year-end rally. Interest rates will continue to go up, and if we could all jog to work we could sure save a lot of money! Our next financial seminar will include a panel of experts talking about subjects important to you like: the current investment market, estate planning, retirement planning, college funds and whatever topics you bring up for discussion. Thursday, August 10, 2006 - 6:30 p.m. Call 887-1983 to reserve your seat. My extension is 227, so call me with any questions.

As you can see from the article in this newsletter, you can now do transactions at over 2,136 locations around the world, and
we can now do transactions for members of other shared branching credit unions from around the city, state and country. In order for us to do the transactions, the member's credit union has to be a participant in the Shared Branch Network. If that is the case, we only
need the member's account number, the name of the credit union and a photo I.D.
Sure, we've got fantastic auto and boat loan financing. But due to popular demand we've also extended our unbeatable refinance offer for you! That means you can still refinance your other lender's auto or boat loan at PFCCU and get a 1% cash back rebate!**
