Mr. Dalaskey added, “We would also like to thank Kevin Mortland of Twin Cities Moving Systems in Eagan, MN and Joseph Sabga of Bekins of South Florida in Ft. Lauderdale, FL who helped us make sure the loading and unloading of the goods went smoothly on loading day and at delivery.”
Cheryl Murray, grandmother of Sidney Markie added, “We couldn’t be happier with the service provided. Everyone was so nice this morning, so professional and caring. May God bless you all! You are all part of a little miracle in process. Thanks again to Bekins for their help.”
