While we are available and on call 24/7, 365 days a year, it is only fair to give our staff time off to be with their families and celebrate whatever holiday traditions they have.

So our office will be closed at Noon on Christmas Eve and remain closed all day Christmas Day. Staffing will also be minimal on Friday, December 26th.

Our owner Jen Kruger is on call as always for any immediate needs or concerns, 24/7 and can be reached by phone at 217-442-4300, extension 1.

May God bless every one of our friends out there. Hold your families tight, let those close to you know how important they are, and never take a day for granted. Time is gone in the blink of an eye.
