GC streetscape 

program grows 

By Andrea Cordle 

Southwest Editor 

Grove City officials want residents and 

visitors to have a visual treat while traveling 

through the city. 

At the March 2 council meeting, Don 

Walters, the community and business 

relations officers for the city of Grove City, 

presented a new streetscape plan. 

Some residents may notice that every 

spring, the city hangs planters on the light 

poles in the Town Center. According to 

Walters, more than 100 planters are hung 

in the downtown area. That idea is going 

to expand to other areas in the city. 

Starting in May, an additional 400 

planters will adorn the light poles along 

Stringtown Road and State Route 665. The 

planters will also stretch further out on 

Broadway, from Ventura Boulevard down 

to Interstate 270.

Eight individuals were recognized for their contributions to the community at the village of Urbancrest’s 12th annual Black 

History Celebration on Feb. 28. Pictured here from left to right (with Mayor Joseph Barnes Sr. in the second row) are Rena 

Saroiberry, S. Henry Warr, Mohamed Osman, Annie Pearl Sanders and Linda and Rodd Lawrence. Fellow honoree Sharon D. 

Saunders was not present to collect her award, nor the one for her father, the late William Daniel Saunders. Annie Pearl Sanders 

was accepting the award on behalf of her husband, Willie Sanders Sr. 

Honoring leaders in the community 

By Dedra Cordle 

Staff Writer 

When Veronica Shepherd was first 

elected to serve on the village of 

Urbancrest council, she expected her 

childhood friend and fellow council member 

S. Henry Warr to be a stabilizing 

force as she navigated these new waters. 

And for the most part, she said, he was 

just that but he didn’t always make it as 

smooth and she wanted it to be. 

“I could count on him to listen,” she 

said with a laugh, “but I soon learned 

that you may leave upset when he offered 

you his advice and opinions.” 

She said that when she became the 

mayor years later, she often lamented to 

Warr her belief that the council was hindering 

progress on programs and ideas 

she wanted to implement. 

“I was hoping other people would see 

my way of things as it would be much easier,” 

she said, “but he would remind me 

that it didn’t always work the way I 

wanted it to. He would always tell the 

truth, even if you didn’t like it.” 

She said his steadfast belief in the purpose 

of the council, of its mission to serve 

the community before self, is one of the 

reasons why he was “so deserving” of 

recognition at the village of Urbancrest’s 

12th annual Black History Celebration. 

On Feb. 28, Warr was among eight 

individuals receiving awards for their 

contributions to the community. He was 

recognized with the Distinguished 

Service Award and for serving more than 

three decades in the village government. 

Warr said he was talked into running 

for council in the late 1970s but never 

expected to win, nor to serve as long as he 

had. 

“I didn’t expect to still be doing this at 

my age,” said the Vietnam veteran, “but I 

wouldn’t change it for the world.” 

Though Warr lost the most recent election 

to Deborah Larkins-Jackson by a flip 

of the coin in November 2019 (their tie on 

election night prompted a recount and 

then coin toss by county election officials), 

he was appointed to a position on the 

planning commission.

Brian Niklos, age 53, formerly of Grove City, 

Ohio passed away unexpectedly January 15, 2020 while 

traveling to San Antonio, Texas. He was born in 

Columbus, Ohio on August 13, 1966 to the late Anthony 

(Tony) and Carolyn Niklos. He graduated from Grove 

City High School class of 1985. 

Brian worked as a telecommunications circuit 

provisioner for many years which allowed him to follow his love of 

travel. He was always known to his sister as a “World Traveler” as Brian 

lived in many different states throughout the US from Ohio to 

California and many places in between. Most recently he returned back 

to Ohio to be closer to family, especially his nephews Bradlee and 

Kameron. 

Brian attended The Ohio State University and regardless of where his 

travels took him, he was a diehard Ohio State fan. Not only did he have 

a smile that could brighten up any room, he could entertain anyone 

for hours whether it be family and friends or while in the spotlight on 

stage with with his amazing voice. 

Brian was preceded in death by his father and mother Anthony and 

Carolyn Niklos, grandfather and grandmother Raymond and Lettie Fulk 

and niece Kayla Sotherland. 

Survived by his sister Danielle (Ryan) and his pride and joy, his 

nephews Bradlee and Kameron Griffin, along with many cousins and 

close friends. He will be dearly missed by all that knew him. 

Family and friends are invited to celebrate the life of Brian Anthony 

Niklos on Saturday March 21st 2020 from 11-1 at The Grove City 

Church of The Nazarene 4770 Hoover Rd Grove City, Ohio 43123 

with a Memorial Service to follow immediately after. Please join us for 

a fellowship gathering that will take place at conclusion of the service 

provided by the ladies of the church.

“No matter where people enter or leave the city, 

they will be exposed to the planters,” said Walters. “It 

is a real stroke of color and calmness.” 

The planters contain a mix of flowers, including 

petunias and amethysts. The planters will be hung in 

May and will remain on the poles for 18 weeks. 

According to Walters, the project will cost $95,000 a 

year. The price includes the flowers and the maintenance 

of the flowers. 

Part of this streetscape project also includes banners. 

The planters will be hung on every light pole and 

banners will be placed on every other light pole, along 

the chosen roadways. 

Walters said this project falls in line with Grove 

City 2050, which is an effort to update city plans and 

policies to shape how the city grows. He said one of the 

guiding principals of Grove City 2050 is to keep a 

small-town feel. 

“This helps to keep a positive community identity,” 

said Walters. 

Councilman Ted Berry asked city administrators if 

there were any other ideas to beautify the city. 

“Flowers are nice but is there more we can do along 

62?” asked Berry. 

The councilman said that area, along Broadway 

COMMUNITY 


“I am so proud to have served this historic village 

and I am proud to continue to serve,” he said. “It was 

been a true honor and a privilege.” 

He said that when he recalls his time on the council, 

he is most proud of its advancements. He cited an 

upgrade to the storm sewer system, the widening of 

residential roads and the building of a new municipal 

complex as some examples that have taken place during 

his tenure. 

Warr said that while he feels “rested,” he is keeping 

the door open to another council run in the future. 

Also receiving the Distinguished Service Award 

were the late William Daniel Saunders, his daughter 

Sharon D. Saunders and Willie Sanders Sr. They were 

recognized for their activism in the community and 

willingness to put others above self. 

William Daniel Saunders, more commonly known 

as “Farmer” to village residents for his love of bib overalls, 

was the first street commissioner, a council member, 

a World War II veteran and a long-time custodian 

at the Urbancrest Elementary School. He was also 

honored for his spirituality. 

“He was an intricate part of the village from a religious 

standpoint as well,” said village Mayor Joseph 

Barnes Sr. 

Sharon D. Saunders was recognized not only for her 

service to the village in governance (she served on 

council and was noted by event organizer Elberta 

Barnes for her willingness to “stand for what is right”) 

but her humanitarian efforts and willingness to volunteer 

at any event. Saunders also played an integral 

role in the implementation of a children-led community 

garden. 

Former board of public affairs trustee Willie 

Sanders Sr., said Barnes, is a tireless worker who

near Interstate 270, needs more work than just 

planters. He said that area is going to be a gateway 

into the redeveloped Beulah Park neighborhood. 

“We have put a substantial investment in that 

area,” said Berry. 

City Administrator Chuck Boso said the planters 

and banners will make a visual impact in that area but 

said part of the problem in beautification and roadwork 

efforts is that some of 62 is located in the city, but 

other parts fall into the village of Urbancrest and private 

properties. 

The village of Urbancrest has been cooperative with 

the city on beautification efforts. 

In other news, council voted in favor of a dispatching 

and communication services agreement with 

Jackson Township. This new agreement will be for five 

years. 

According to the agreement, the township will pay 

the city $175,282 in 2020 for emergency services dispatching. 

According to Boso, the cost will go up 4 percent 

each year of the contract. By 2024, the township 

will pay the city $205,000. 

The agreement will end on Dec. 31, 2024. 

The city also provides dispatching and communication 

services for Prairie and Pleasant townships. 

“turned his own front yard into a tool shop” when 

strong winds tore down limbs from trees in the village. 

“When we had tornado-like winds sweep through 

our area a few years ago, Mr. Sanders volunteered to 

help people in the community remove tree limbs from 

their yard and make repairs to homes and buildings.” 

Barnes said his willingness to lend a hand — most 

often unprompted — is what made Sanders worthy of 

the award. 

Receiving the Mayor Ellen Walker-Craig Jones 

Community Service Award were attorneys Linda and 

Rodd Lawrence, community activist Mohamed Osman 

and restaurant manager Rena Saroiberry. 

The Lawrence’s have been working with the village 

for more than a decade, with Rodd serving as its current 

law director. Barnes said the Lawrence’s have 

been instrumental in “keeping the village legal” as it 

pertains to contract negotiations, litigation and other 

codified matters. 

Osman was recognized for his work with the village 

youth, especially with its growing Somali community. 

Osman said he was inspired to create goal ceremonies 

to celebrate their achievements no matter how small 

they may seem. 

“I want to encourage them to be somebody,” he said. 

“It doesn’t matter if they are in kindergarten or all the 

way in high school, I want them to know that they can 

be somebody and can help lead others through encouragement 

and by setting a good example.” 

Saroiberry, a manager of the Subway restaurant on 

Broadway in Grove City, was recognized for her “devotion 

as a community partner.” Elberta Barnes said 

Saroiberry has been volunteering and catering events 

held throughout the village for more than a decade.

Voters to decide on library levy 

Southwest Public Libraries will have a 

1-mill renewal levy on the March 17 ballot. 

Issue 20 will replace the current levy, 

passed by voters in 2010. It expires at the 

end of 2020. The levy generates $2.5 million 

annually and represents approximately 

40 percent of the library’s budget, said 

Mark Shaw, director of Southwest Public 

Libraries.

communities the library system serves 

would see no tax increase. Per $100,000 

property valuation, homeowners would 

continue paying approximately $30 per 

year, or $2.55 per month, until the 10-year 

levy expires. Senior citizens eligible for the 

Homestead Exemption would pay less. 

The library’s district includes four townships 

in southwestern Franklin County: 

Jackson Township (Grove City and 

Urbancrest), Prairie Township (Lincoln 

Village, Galloway and the Westland area), 

Pleasant Township (Harrisburg and 

Darbydale) and Franklin Township. The 

system operates two libraries, the Grove 

City Library and the Westland Area 

Library. 

If approved, funds generated by the levy 

would go toward the operation of the 

library to pay for materials, building maintenance 

and operations, as well as library 

programs. 

Shaw said the library system’s board of 

trustees opted for a straight renewal to 

avoid increasing taxes on the district’s taxpayers. 

If voters do not approve the 1-mill 

levy renewal, Shaw said tough decisions 

will lie ahead.

Firefighters Mitch Shroyer, Aaron Price, Jack Ellis and Lieutenant Jeremy Johnson 

demonstrate the Lucas Device and new cardiac arrest protocols at the Pleasant 

Township board meeting. 

Training to save lives 

By Hannah Poling 

Staff Writer 

The Pleasant Township Fire 

Department will use new cardiac arrest 

protocols that could help to save lives. 

Firefighters attended the Feb. 25 

meeting to present this method to the 

board of trustees. 

“Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the 

number one killers of people in our country,” 

said Pleasant Township Fire Chief 

Brian Taylor. “You have a 10 percent survival 

rate under our current cardiac 

arrest protocol.” 

Fire department officials have come 

up with a new protocol to put in place, 

which has been successful throughout 

the country. 

In cardiac arrest, the patient is not 

breathing and their heart is not pumping 

so the main goal is to circulate the blood 

flow by doing continuous chest compressions. 

The fire station will start using a 

Lucas Device, a mechanical CPR device 

that performs 102 compressions per 

minute. A neck strap is placed on the 

patient to help keep the machine stable. 

A nasal cannula is placed in the patient’s 

nostrils to force airflow into the lungs. A 

mega mover is slid under the patient for 

easier transport and then the patient is 

slid up onto a wedge which, according to 

Lt. Ryan Wihl, is proven to help provide 

better blood flow to and from the brain. 

Compressions are paused for two seconds 

to identify if the patient needs shocked. 

The Lucas device never stops compressions 

during the shock to attempt to 

regain the pulse. 

“Our new cardiac arrest program, we 

hope, will offer folks about a one in two 

survival rate. That’s a huge increase in 

what we have had for the last 40 years as 

a fire department,” said Taylor. 

Emergency responders will start using 

the protocol in early March. 

The fire department is also in partnership 

with Prairie, Jackson, and Scioto 

township fire departments who will all be 

changing to the same cardiac arrest program. 

“If we can do even 1 percent better 

than what we are doing today, we are 

moving in the right direction,” said Wihl. 

In other fire department news, Scott 

Bowyer was honored for his 30-year 

career as a part-time firefighter for the 

Pleasant Township Fire Department. He 

was given a fireman’s helmet and cake 

was served in his honor.


Spots open for Citizens Police Academy 

The Grove City Citizens Police Academy is now 

enrolling for classes that begin March 31.

Tips from Taste of Grove City participants 

This year’s Taste of Grove City has a variety 

of food and business vendors. 

We were able to take a few moments to 

connect with some of these vendors before 

the big event for a quick Q & A. We asked a 

few of the vendors to share some key tips 

they wanted the community to know about 

their business or industry. 

Homestead America: Bentley Apartments 

and Homestead Village 55+Community 

shared three things to consider when 

shopping for an apartment home: 

●Location/Neighborhood: Consider what is 

walkable to the apartment community, how 

close is this location to your workplace, etc. 

●Amenities: What fits your lifestyle, if you 

can't live without a pool or fitness center 

find an apartment community with both. 

●Pet-Friendly: What are the pet policies and 

monthly fees? Do they have amenities for 

pets right in the community? 

Broadway Station shared three tips for 

renters: 

●Treat your rental like you own it. 

●Always let your maintenance staff 

know when there is an issue. 

●Pay your rent on time.

Moses-Mouser and Associates’ tips for 

individuals looking for a new Ophthalmology 

Practice in Grove City: 

●Our practice spends the time to explain 

and discuss patient diagnosis. It turns out 

this is quite unique in the day and age of the 

rapid assembly line patient experience. 

Many offices see 50 plus patients a day per 

provider. We keep our patient volume below 

40 a day per provider to provide the time we 

need to explain a patient's condition and answer 

all questions. 

●We have comprehensive eye care as we 

provide both ophthalmology (eye surgery) 

and optometry (glasses and contact lenses, 

including complex contact lens fitting) expertise. 

●We offer the latest technology in 

cataract and micro-incisional glaucoma surgery.

2020 Census: 

Why does it “Count”? 

The 2020 Census is about 

to get underway and communities 

around the nation, including 

Grove City, ‘count’ 

on it for a variety of reasons. 

Grove City is ready to do 

its part to ensure an accurate 

count, beginning with 

the establishment of a committee 

and online resources 

residents can access 24/7. 

Communities know how to 

best capture their local audiences 

and have taken charge 

of that task. 

Jimmy Hoppel, a development 

planner with Grove City and a committee 

member, explained that there are 

two goals: to promote awareness of the Census 

and to reach the hardest-to-count populations. 

Hardest-to-count may be defined as 

someone between addresses or very young 

children. 

The biggest benefit to a highly-accurate 

Census count is to more accurately send federal 

funding dollars to Grove City. These 

funds will affect overall quality of living for 

all residents–roads, public transportation, 

public schools, family assistance. An adequately-funded 

community will be a place 

that business can continue to thrive and 

grow. 

The Census also provides data of value 

to businesses and community members. 

Projections for future business growth are 

created using Census data, and the 2020 

Census will provide the most recent and accurate 

data of growth. Businesses can use 

this to decide to grow or even expand into 

new geographic locations. 

Jimmy provided an interesting statistic 

from university researchers who have calculated 

how much money is missed when a 

count is inaccurate. For the state of Ohio, it 

(For a side note we did find out that Garret 

Mouser, MD is a 1994 Grove City High 

School graduate!) 

Telhio’s tips for individuals looking for a 

new banking experience: 

●Align yourself with the right partners 

to help your business grow. Start with a 

banker, CPA and an attorney. 

●Always have a plan for your business 

and your finances. Things can change and if 

they do, make sure to have a backup plan. 

●Keep a pulse on your business finances. 

Review them regularly to understand 

what’s going on at any given moment. 

E-Merge Real Estate’s tips for individuals 

searching for a great real estate 

agency: 

●Get pre-approved. 

●Choosing a real estate agent with experience 

does matter. 

was estimated that $1800 per person per 

year (over 10 years) was missed. 

While the Census may seem straightforward, 

and easier than ever given the online 

option, for some it can be confusing how to 

answer. This may be due to a recent move 

or how to account for college or recentlygraduated 

adult children who split time between 

their family home and a campus 

residence. The Census website has plenty of 

answers for these specific cases and many 

more. 

As mentioned, responding online is a 

new option this year, making for as Jimmy 

put it, a “multitude of ways to respond.” He 

assured that Census workers, should they 

come to your home, will have proper credentials 

and also operate under a lifetime confidentiality 

agreement in regards to the 

information they gather. A home visit is 

considered a ‘last resort’ given the online, 

mail-in, and phone options. 

Business owners are encouraged to not 

only account for their household correctly, 

but encourage their employees and colleagues 

to do the same. Materials are available 

online that are suitable for break 

rooms and employee common areas. 

●Having patience in this hot market. 

Newcomer Cremations, Funerals’ tips 

for individuals looking for a quality funeral 

home : 

●Funerals and cremations can be expensive, 

but not at Newcomer. We saved Grove 

City and Columbus families over $2 million 

last year. 

●Planning ahead for funeral and cremation 

services can help families save thousands, 

and gain valuable peace of mind! 

●Preplanning allows you to fully document 

your wishes, eliminating confusion 

and removing the burden of decision-making 

from your loved ones after your passing. 

●Getting started with pre-planning is 

simple and there’s no obligation. You can estimate 

costs on our website at: Newcomer- 

Columbus.com/plan-online.

Q & A with the Evans Center 


Here in Grove City, the Evans Center located 

on Dudley Avenue, is home to the senior 

center. 

We caught up with Tammy Jefferson 

with the Evans Center to give us an 

overview of their services, including what 

you might not know. 

Q: Like most senior centers, the Evans 

Center offers a variety of services, but 

what are a few services that are overlooked 

or sometimes people forget are offered? 

A: Some of the programs we offer that 

may be unknown to the community are support 

groups, daily lunch and socialization 

through Lifecare Alliance, computer lab access, 

a fitness room with everything you 

need to stay fit, group fitness classes, and 

monthly blood pressure screenings. 

Another wonderful program that may be 

unheard of is SALT (Seniors and Law Enforcement 

Together) which informs participants 

on community services, as well as 

crime and safety issues pertinent to seniors. 

Jackson Township Community Cares connects 

seniors with our fire department to 

learn about their community paramedic 

program. 

Q: People can be shy and hesitant about 

meeting new people and a new place at 

any age, but how do you encourage seniors 

(and their families) to come join the 

fun and enjoy the resources the Evans 

Center offers? 

A: After a tour to show newcomers the 

center, we try to connect them with an activity 

they’re comfortable with to break the 

ice! Some great, low-key activities we suggest 

to a new participant include chair volleyball 

and our lunch program. 

We can introduce you to other participants 

with similar interests, and show you 

everything we have to offer. Bringing a family 

member with you on your tour often 

helps create a sense of comfort when exploring 

something new. 

The people we meet are often surprised 

with how cozy and welcoming our center 

truly is. 

Q: How would someone go about getting 

involved with the Evans Center as a 

senior? 

A: The first step to involvement in the 

center is to step inside for a tour! No appointment 

is necessary. From there, we will 

also introduce you to services and activities 

that are interesting or important to you. 

The Grove City Senior Club complements 

our center and you can learn more about the 

club, too! 

Q: Are there volunteer opportunities 

available, and is there an age requirement 

for volunteering? 

A: We do have a volunteer program and 

are in the process of finding people in the 

community to share their talents, skills, 

and/or knowledge at the center. 

If you are eligible to participate at the 

center, you are also eligible to volunteer! 

Some of our volunteer opportunities include 

greeting participants at the front desk, answering 

phones, teaching classes, sharing 

knowledge through Lunch & Learn sessions 

or seminars, setting up and tearing down 

for center celebrations, and so much more! 

We do welcome volunteers of any age that 

have something unique to offer. 

Q: What is one (or a few!) of your personal 

favorite activities offered? 

A: My personal favorite activity would be 

our breakfast, lunch, and supper clubs! 

Our adventures to local restaurants 

around Columbus offers a huge opportunity 

for socialization and engaging with friends 

in a new atmosphere. 

These trips offer us a chance to try new 

restaurants and foods together. In addition, 

our Wii bowling league, game days, and 

chair volleyball sessions are a favorite because 

of the friendly competition and pure 

fun they offer. 

Lunch & Learn sessions, educational 

classes, and support groups such as Conversations 

About Loss and Alzheimer’s support 

are a great chance to connect on a more personal 

level and to learn and engage in more 

serious topics. 

Q: Is there anything else you’d like to 

share that would benefit our senior community 

and their loved ones? 

A: Our programs and services are formed 

with you in mind! Senior centers sometimes 

have a negative stigma attached to them. 

We cannot stress enough that the Evans 

Center is extremely active and our participants 

are very engaged. 

From parties and dances, to our competitive 

Wii bowling league, to day trips and 

trying new restaurants, our goal is to 

squash the stigmas and offer you a safe 

place to socialize, engage in leisure, and remain 

active in the community. Let me take 

this opportunity to personally invite you to 

visit us and see that our center was built for 

you! 

For more information 

To learn more about the Evans Center, 

reach out to them via phone at: (614) 277- 

1060, or stop by for a visit at their 4330 

Dudley Avenue address. They’re open Monday-Friday 

from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.



Southwest Community Leadership lends support to Special Olympics 

By Sarah Hann 

It may seem like the 2019-20 class of the 

Southwest Community Leadership Program 

just formed, but they’re well underway in 

making big contributions to the community 

as classes before. 

In addition to learning about a variety of 

local programs, departments and services, 

the Program class completes a project benefitting 

the Grove City Area. It’s up to each 

class to examine community needs and then 

determine which aspect of the community 

they will support; what will be their cause. 

Previous classes have chosen a variety of 

programs in the community, and have even 

established the Farmers’ Market. 

It’s not a decision made lightly and much 

brainstorming went into determining who 

or what to support during this year’s class 

project. From that brainstorming, the 

South-Western City School District Special 

Olympics basketball program was selected 

to benefit. It came to light that these teams 

have a budget of only $500, receive no additional 

funding, and use hand-me-down uniforms 

from the schools’ varsity and junior 

varsity teams. 

Three of the district’s high schools–Central 

Crossing, Grove City, and Franklin 

Heights, have teams of players and cheerleaders 

who showcases their skills in competitions 

throughout Central Ohio. The plan 

for the Leadership Program Class is to secure 

additional funding, at least $1,500 for 

each school, so that teams can purchase 

equipment, matching uniform items, and 

other needs. 

Currently the Leadership Program Class 

has raised $500 toward their goal, thanks to 

a 50/50 raffle they held during StoryPoint 

Grove City’s February craft show. The class 

has at least $4,000 to go and additional 

fundraising opportunities are being 

planned. 

Money is important, but moral support 

also goes a long way. Leadership Program 

Class members recently attended the Skills 

Competition between the three teams. This 

was a great chance for class members to 

meet the young athletes they’re supporting, 

and also show the community what the Special 

Olympics program is all about.

AARP Foundation Tax-Aide volunteers 

are offering free tax preparation at the 

Grove City Church of the Nazarene from 

early February through mid-April. 

However, this site is shifting from an 

appointment site to a walk-in site. 

Those interested can arrive at the Grove 

City Church of the Nazarene, 4770 Hoover 

Road in Grove City from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. 

Tuesdays and Thursday from Feb. 4 

through April 9. 

This location will operate on a firstcome, 

first-served walk-in basis. Taxpayers 

are urged to arrive early to register for a 

space. 

While Tax-Aide’s focus is on low-to-moderate 

income senior citizens, the service is 

available to anyone, regardless of income or 

age. Taxpayers are asked to bring a photo 

ID, last year’s tax return and all their taxrelated 

documents. 

You do not need to be a member of 

AARP to use the service. The service is 

free.

The National Trade Association 

we belong to has 

purchased the following 

classifieds. Determining 

the value of their service 

or product is advised by 

this publication. In order 

to avoid misunderstandings, 

some advertisers do 

not offer “employment” 

but rather supply the 

readers with manuals, directories 

and other materials 

designed to help 

their clients establish mail 

order selling and other 

businesses at home. Under 

NO circumstance 

should you send any 

money in advance or give 

the client your checking, 

license ID or credit card 

numbers. Also beware of 

ads that claim to guarantee 

loans regardless of 

credit and note that if a 

credit repair company 

does business only over 

the phone it’s illegal to request 

any money before 

delivering its service. All
