LORI MCMUNN, RIBO, CSIP, CAIB
"Born and raised in rural Perth, I now enjoy spending time with my family at our home on the Rideau. We like to stay active and enjoy boating, ATV, snowmobiling, volleyball, and walks with Sammy, our Bernese Mountain Dog. I enjoy my career and all the great people I work with and am proud to be a part of the local community and support many charity and community events and organizations. I have the privilege of helping valued clients through some of the biggest joys and sorrows of their lives, such as when they buy a new home, vehicle or toy or start a business, and also when they suffer a loss!"
