Celebrating Florina 💛🏆👏🏼
After three years with us, our wonderful assistant 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗮 𝗔𝗹𝗶𝘂 worked her final day with Legacy Gold last Friday. And goodness, are we going to miss each other!
Florina has been part of our business during an important season of growth. She helped us build the 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗥𝗘 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 rebrand from the ground up and spent three years working alongside Patricia, learning the many moving pieces behind a successful Real Estate business while becoming an invaluable part of ours.
And she is 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 at what she does.
As a former career Office Management Specialist myself, I know exceptional administrative talent when I see it. Florina is organized, capable, dependable, and eager to learn—and we've watched those skills grow tremendously during her time with us.
Now she's taking that experience to the 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗩𝗶𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, where she'll continue building her career in the housing and Real Estate industry. We couldn't be more excited to see where this next opportunity takes her.
There's something especially meaningful about this moment for Patricia. Throughout her more than 40 years in Real Estate, she has had the privilege of mentoring and investing in a number of young women who have gone on to build impressive careers and expertise of their own. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆𝘀: Amy Eckelberry Buchanan, owner of her own Real Estate Transaction Coordination business; Katherine Snellings, a Department of the Interior professional; Susan Wood, business co-owner and Realtor; Shelley Seitz Johnson, Realtor; Sarah Cary, Realtor; and now, Florina Aliu.
Maybe that's part of what 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆 really means.
It isn't only what you build for yourself or what you pass down within a family. It's what you 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲—the knowledge you share, the standards you set, and the confidence and experience they carry with them as they build something of their own.
Florina, your hard work is woven into Legacy Gold, and your contributions will remain part of this business as we continue to grow. We are incredibly proud of you, we're going to miss you terribly, and we'll be cheering you on in everything that comes next.
𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗮! 𝗚𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀! 💛
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.”
— Colossians 3:23 (NIV)
