MAKING SENSE OF INVESTING
Dear Winder Barrow Community:
Edward Jones is one of the nation’s largest and strongest investment firms, with a very
personalized approach to doing business. We’ve built our business working one on one with
individuals as they pursue their personal financial goals.
Building a relationship of trust and confidence cannot be overrated. We strive each day to earn
the trust and confidence of special people like you!
It is important for me to get to know people personally, and I appreciate the opportunity to
speak with you. When I can be of service to you or anyone you know, please call me.
This may sound a bit old-fashioned, but I just wanted to thank you again for allowing me to
serve your financial needs. I appreciate the confidence you have shown in Edward Jones and
me.
Respectfully,
