“I have drawn on your expertise, John, as a financial planner in organizing my personal estate plan where your extensive knowledge of financial matters was a great asset in helping me put order into my own estate plan. Thank you, John, for your time, your enthusiastic, gentle manner, your honest options and your advice. I very much appreciate the ongoing service you offer to me. I would be happy to recommend you to any person wishing to develop a planned giving program or a personal estate planning program.”

“Alison and I would like to thank you for the tremendous help you have provided for us over the past 15 months or so. Before we heard you speak at the Sunday evening seminar at First Baptist, Calgary, our estate planning was in a deplorable state. We had 20-year old Wills and nothing else. You spent quite a lot of time with us, working over such matters as retirement income, bequests, security for one’s surviving spouse and methods to minimize tax on our estates. Thanks to you, we now feel at peace knowing that the details of our estate planning have been carefully settled. I’m sure that there are others who feel as indebted to you as we do. You provided an invaluable service at a time when we simply did not know how to proceed.”

“Approximately two years ago I approached John to advise me on, and provide coverage as necessary relating to, my personal life insurance situation. What you may have gathered already is that John is a unique individual in his industry. He is very successful, but in my view, has achieved that level while putting relationships first. John has impressed me with his product knowledge and ongoing concern with not only insurance, but also the business and personal financial planning needs of his clientele. He is scrupulously honest and forthright individual and in all ways comes highly recommended by me.”

“I have been associated with John Kok since September, 1980 and consider him to be a very honest and hard working individual. I believe that both his character and integrity are second to none. His success in the industry is indicative of the quality of service provided to his clients. I consider him not only a business associate but a very good friend.”
