Steve Mattison, Ozarksagent for Branson Missouri.
When I was about 4 years old this was taken in a local park where I had found a cigarette according to my slightly younger cousin who sent it to me. Unfortunately, I do not know who else is in this photo. I am going to our annual family reunion in that same park this weekend so may find out.
When I was a little older I learned to fish on the James River and wanted to come back here to retire and fish in these same great waters.
But first I did some college, my duty in the Marines over in Vietnam, and more college, raised a family, served as a missionary and was ready to retire.
I was ready for the fishing and enjoying the James River and Table Rock Lake like I had dreamed of, so my bride and I moved to the Branson Missouri area.
We started looking for a home to buy and found it quite challenging to say the least. We had bought and sold several homes so were not novices but found the real challenge was finding the kind of help we expected. We found that every agent we tried to work with turned out to be less than what we had hoped for and I found a real need for my standard of business practices in the real estate market here.
Now I am working as a full time Realtor helping people find the kind of help they should have and getting in as much fishing as possible with my Grand-daughter and other family members when I can.
