Dear clients and friends,

It was on a Friday, June 1st, 1973, a clear blue summer’s day, when I began a long career in accounting at a large public accounting firm in Simcoe, Ontario. I worked for this regional firm for over 30 years before starting my own practice once my kids graduated from university in 2005.

Over the years, I have mentored many promising young accountants, but the most promising would be another young chap by the name of Erwin Dely, who went on to form his own practice in Brantford in 1990.

After what seems like a fast 51 ½ years, I have made the decision to retire and pass the torch over to the perfect replacement. As fortune may have it, Erwin Dely and his daughter, Lauren Dely, have graciously accepted the task of continuing my legacy and taking over the operations of my practice.

They are well-trained in taxation and accounting and have the compassion and determination to take the firm well into the future.

I must thank every one of our clients and friends who have trusted us with one of their most significant valuables, their tax information; friends that we have made over a half-century of service … you, and your support, have made this an extraordinary firm of trusted tax advisors.

You shouldn’t see or feel any changes to your level of support in the coming years, as our staff, who are a dedicated team of professionals, will not be changing. And I will always be available for any client who wants to spend some time with me.

I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for a half-century of trust, respect, and friendship and want you to rest assured that you will be well taken care of in the future.

All my warmest regards,

​

Larry.
