Hawaii ALS is supported by folks like Nicole and Lance. We are showing them our appreciation of their support by making sure their fledgling step into the business world is steady with our encouragement.
Nicole was one of the original "cast of characters" who made up what was also the fledgling MDA ALS Support Group almost ten years ago. Her mom, Judy Birt, was diagnosed with ALS. Nicole and sister Maile took turns taking feisty Judy to our meeting place in Pali Momi. The Birt family, particularly Nicole who still lived with her parents at that time, was hands-on involved in the care of their mom. Judy was blessed with such a great brood! When Judy died, soon to be followed by dad Joe, Nicole was ready to move on and fall in love. In May this year, she and Lance, of the tartan and Braveheart lineage, wed in true Scottish fashion! (Tami and I attended the beautiful ceremony!)
Shortly after starting work here on Oahu as a mechanic, Lance was laid off, thanks to downsizing. He and Nicole then planned their own copy center. Last week, Nicole joined him fulltime in this exciting venture for this lovely young couple. This is Nicole's announcement of their new undertaking.
Aloha!
This is Nicole (Birt) Wallace. My mother, Judith Birt, had ALS. Over the years I have gotten to know many of the support group members and O’hana. I also have continued to support group activities such as attending Christmas parties and helping out at fundraisers.
After 20 years in the copy business, my husband, Lance, and I have opened up our own company in Ewa Beach. It is called Not Your Average Mail. We are a complete copy and shipping center: from basic self-serve copying to designing, printing and finishing in black and white or color. Our store also offers mailbox rentals, key duplication, passport photos, binding, laminating, rubber stamps, invitations, labels, office supplies, greeting cards, legal forms, packing supplies, folding, cutting, etc. Basically if there is something you need, we will find a way to get it done for you.
As a special offer to all my friends associated with the Hawaii ALS support group, Muscular Dystrophy Association and the UP Alumni Association, I will give you a 10% discount on our services. I will give you the best deal possible! If you get a written quote from another company, I will meet it or beat it! We will even find a way to get your order delivered to you if the need arises.
Not Your Average Mail is more than a small business center. It is locally owned: I was born and raised on Oahu and have 20 years of experience in this industry. Not Your Average Mail is committed to our customers’ needs – providing high quality copying and shipping services, along with a memorable customer experience. We even offer curbside service for our special customers – YOU! Not Your Average Mail is dedicated to serving the State of Hawaii. Remember, we are locally owned and operated – from Hawaii and for Hawaii.
Mahalo for your business! And please spread the word around…Not Your Average Mail is here to serve! For detailed information about our store and services, please visit our website: http://www.notyouraveragemail.com
