Jim Jones of Bedminster, New Jersey to our Board of Directors. Jim is the CEO of Penford Group LLC, a multi-disciplinary commercial real estate development and construction firm.

Penford specializes in the revitalization of brownfield sites and has been involved in some of New Jersey’s largest industrial redevelopment projects where jobs were successfully created in disadvantaged urban areas. We are indeed fortunate to have someone with Jim’s background as we continue this significant building project.

In welcoming Jim we bid farewell to Sam Ruello, founding board member of Good Shepherd SLF.

At the age of 85 we decided to let Sam retire, but he will never retire from our hearts. Sam’s wise counsel will continue to guide us, as we pick up the phone and say, “Sam, what do you think about that?”

What a blessing Sam has been to us all. Well done good and faithful servant, well done.
