Chat With a Client Tony and Cheryl Spadafora HOW DID YOU GET CONNECTED WITH FINANCIAL ARCHITECTS? My wife and her late husband started with FAI and had accounts in the early ’90s. These accounts were used to grow wealth for his business and also put their two sons through college. They worked closely with Mike Kucera, and we have been with him ever since. Mike is terrific! When I married Cheryl in 2009, I moved my 401(k) over to Financial Architects. The boys graduated, James from Ferris State and Brandon from UTI. Both have great careers.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS HOLIDAY SEASON? We enjoy having our family, especially our two grandchildren, over for the holidays.

The family loves her food. Family and friends are very important to us, especially during the holiday season.
