About Our Employees

Who will be in your home? Are they honest and trustworthy? Will they be careful and cautious with your furniture? Are they polite and friendly? Will they do high quality work, efficiently?

YES

	John has worked at L.A.P.D. for twelve years. Most of John's painting experience has been gained at L.A.P.D. This means John has a profound understanding of the skills necessary to be an outstanding painter. He knows exactly what our customers are looking for and how to achieve both the customer's and L.A.P.D.'s expectations. John has been married for 25 years. He has lived in the North Metro for 24 years with his wife, Gayle, and their three children ages 22, 20 & 18. John's hobbies include building cedar strip canoes and paddling them in the B.W.C.A. He also enjoys skiing and instructing in the winter months.
	Tony has been involved in the painting industry for sixteen years of which eleven of those years were spent working in his home town of Ft Worth, TX. Tony has been with L.A.P.D. for two years and he likes to take pride in his work. Making the customer happy is his goal. He lives in Robbinsdale with his family. He loves to spend his spare time fishing and barbecuing.

	Linda Keenan (the boss) is the office manager. She is likely to be the first person you talk to when scheduling an appointment. If something needs doing Linda is likely to be the person that gets it done. Linda's office, and for that matter her home, car, checkbook, files and kids are as clean and neat as a pin. Well organized is an understatement. Linda keeps all of us on our toes. Linda is perfectly suited for the job. She doesn't let things slide and she has a quick smile when it's needed most. Our office is in our home which also allows her to spend much-needed time with our two children, Jeffrey nineteen & Jacob fourteen. Somehow Linda has managed to put up with her husband Jim Keenan for 25 years. There is one thing Linda will not do under any circumstances: She will not swing a brush.
	James (Corky)(Jim) Keenan I am a life-long Mahtomedi resident (over 45 Years). I started working for my father at 13 years of age and I have never had any other type of job. I wear many hats at L.A.P.D. including Personnel Director, Marketing Manager, Sales Manager, Purchasing Manager and On Site Problem Resolution Manager. In short, I make plans and implement them to better service our customers. I spend as much time as possible with my family. Being self employed, this usually requires us to leave home frequently. I try to be active at St. Jude of the Lake Catholic Church and I have been a Cub Master in the Boy Scout Program for ten years. My parents, my wife, my in-laws and scouting have been very influential in forming my character. I owe them all a great deal. For additional information please see Company History Page.
