Here is LEONARD'S bio;
I was born in the Netherlands in a small town called Harderwyjk. Shortly after the War we immigrated to America. I was 2 years old at the time. We settled into the city of Grand Rapids which is in West Michigan.
After 6 months in America I came down with Polio. It paralyzed my right foot and leg. After and having several surgeries I was able to get around pretty good, but it took time, and a lot of physical therapy. I loved sports and managed to play and keep up pretty well with my classmates. I still love sports and watch my favorite teams the Detroit Tigers and the Detroit Pistons.
My wife and I have 3 wonderful children. Early on in our marriage we lived in Anchorage Alaska during the pipeline building years. Those were fun years I loved camping and fishing and canoeing. We went camping every chance we got in the summer time. In my opinion Alaska is the most beautiful state in USA.
Eventually we decided it was better to raise our children in Michigan so we moved back to the Grand Rapids area where I have worked for 35 years mainly in furniture manufacturing and mainly as a production manager in the finishing departments. Also worked in a large retail store as a furniture technician.
Recently I have had problems with recurring muscle weakness which is brought on by what is called Post-Polio so I had to retire early. I now do volunteer work in our church along with working as a Bible Instructor with Cross Roads Bible Institute which is a ministry to prison inmates.
I came across Adlandpro sometime back in 2001 and found it a great place to advertise. I became a member in April 2005 mainly because of the community and the forums. I have learned a lot here and found some wonderful friends. I enjoy helping out new members whenever I can.
I thank Bogdan and his staff who have done a remarkable job here with the community and continue to make it better. I am thankful for all my friends here at Adlandpro.
I enjoy network marketing and am an affiliate member of ItsYourNet. They have made it possible to make a very good income with internet products and services such as VoIP, Domains and Web Sites, and 3D Virtual Reality which is really cool place, and a unique place to advertise. Coming real soon there will be WiFi available. There is no cost to join. www.itsyournet.com/go/15669lb
For a long time I have been interested in the quality of drinking water. I have been a Independent distributor for 18 years now with a company called Multi-Pure Drinking Water Systems. They have what I consider the best of the best water purification systems. They have a large selection to meet all people’s needs.
Right now they have a $40 rebate on all units. These units are very much in demand and more independent distributors are needed. The commissions are great and paid twice a month. The one time cost to get started is only $15-$24 depending on what type of materials you select. The website is www.multipure.com Please use referral #163073. If interested you can contact me at cedarrock03@yahoo.com or call 800-622-9206.
I also am part of the Jerky Direct Team at Adlandpro http://Leonards.jerkydirect.com Jerky direct has the best jerky that I have ever tried and that is a fact. The taste is really good! For $12 they set you up with your own website and 2 bags of jerky of your choice. The quality and selection of their products really incredible!
I am also a member of Bizzy Blogz. It is a very fun community with friendly people and a good place to advertise. I encourage you to join us there... I think you be pleasantly surprised. My referral link is: www.bizzyblogz.biz/signup.php/?refer=lberg
If you have time visit my e-store CedarRock Products. There are quality products at low prices. I will continue to add new products there. www.4ys.org/cedarrockproducts.

Leonard Berghoef
