CLASS of 1999 Hi, I'm Pat Mahoney and
I'm the 1999 New Designee Rep for the Philadelphia Chapter's Class of 1999 New Designees.
When I completed my CPCU studies in June with three courses,
CPCU 4, 9 and Au66, I felt that I achieved a blast into the millenium. Study had been my
priority for the previous six months and I had kept myself sane by involving almost
everyone who crossed my path. Colleagues that rode the elevator with me found themselves
in a conversation about Keyne and Uncle Miltie (AKA Milton Freedman). Luckily, I have a
humorous personality and we were all able to laugh and enjoy. The study almost became a
combined effort with everyone cheering for me. It is hard to explain the fantastic feeling
of accomplishment that came over me when I got notice that I had succeeded.
I encourage everyone to pursue your designation and join the many professionals that proudly live the CPCU code. Persistence paid off for me since I started the CPCU studies in 1982 but a major illness in my family delayed my progress. When I shared my story with a younger woman as we left the building after our last test, she said, " If you can do it, I can do it too." I was thrilled to be a motivation for this woman. I had started to give back some of the encouragement that I had received from my personal sponsor and teachers. Please contact me if I can help you at 215-744-2468 or e-mail mailto:MAHONPAT@juno.com AND HERE ARE OUR NEW CPCU's FOR 1999 Congratulations to the following 30 individuals who have passed the September 1998 through June 1999 final exams and who received their CPCU designation at the October 1999 annual meeting in Boston. We welcome and encourage them to come to our meetings and become active Philadelphia Chapter members.
