ONA's Oak Leaflet Wins Another Award!

6/7/2016

0 Comments

 
Last month, at the Neighborhoods USA (NUSA) conference in Memphis, TN, our very own Oak Leaflet was awarded 2nd place!  This is a national award in the category for newsletters, printed format, published 7 or more times annually.
Picture
First place went to the Oakwood News of the Historic Oakwood Neighborhood in Raleigh, NC, and third place to the NET News of the Northeast Tacoma Neighborhood Council of Tacoma, WA.  Other finalists included the Dahl Update of Dahlman Neighborhood Association in Omaha, NE; the TONAPU News of the Triple One Neighborhood Association and Parent's Union in Omaha, NE; and the South Shore Current of the South Shore Community in Chicago, Illinois.

ONA's Beautification Committee was a finalist in NUSA's Social Revitalization category, as was an East Fort Worth organization.

Congratulations to editor Libby Willis, all of the volunteers that contribute to the Oak Leaflet on a regular basis, and the membership of the Oakhurst Neighborhood Association on another national award!

This Thursday's Meeting: Estate Planning

6/7/2016

0 Comments

 
If someone asks if you have a will and you say no, you may hear the following response from an attorney:  “Yes, you do. The State of Texas has already drawn it up for you. And unless you take the time to prepare your will the way you want it to ensure that your wishes are carried out, the state will decide for you.” Attorneys say everyone needs a will. Getting the facts to help with key decisions in estate planning can be an important first step for most people.
New Oakhurst resident and estate planning attorney Jeremy Carroll will present a program entitled “What is Estate Planning?” at the ONA monthly meeting this Thursday, June 9 at 7pm in the library at Calvary Christian Academy. Jeremy is a graduate of Dallas Baptist University with a degree in business management. In 2014, he earned his law degree from Texas A&M University Law School. Jeremy works in the firm of Leach and Fox, P.C., Estate Attorneys in Hurst. He practices in the areas of wills, trusts, estate planning, probate and estate administration, advanced directives, and powers of attorneys.

A resident of Bluebonnet, Jeremy is pleased to be in Oakhurst. Recently, he was one of the “newbies” who attended the ONA new resident dinner. He’s happy to share a program with his neighbors which he regularly presents to other groups throughout Tarrant County. Please come hear Jeremy’s information on will and estate planning.
