We believe that our new name accurately reflects our business today. As you know, retired partner Harvey Whatley passed away last year. Carol T. Allen, CPA, has been with our firm since 1983 and became a partner in 1995. Since then, she has played a vital role in supporting our practice with her extensive experience in audit and tax services. Carol also oversees the professional development of our associates and keeps our firm apprised of current accounting and auditing developments.

We are also pleased to announce that Sheryl Hagen, CPA, CFE and Brenda Young, CPA, have been named partners. Sheryl’s career began in 1980 with what was then one of the “Big Eight” firms. Throughout the years she has worked in various industries, both in public accounting and the private sector, and has developed skills specializing in accounting processes, technology and fraud. Sheryl joined our firm in 1998 and is a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE). Brenda worked for First State Bank of Rio Vista for 22 years prior to joining us in 1999. Brenda’s many years of working in the financial institution industry, from the ground level up to Controller, gives her extensive knowledge and a unique understanding of issues and concerns facing financial institutions today.

While we are excited about our new name, we want to reaffirm our commitment to doing what we’ve always done – and that is to provide the best accounting and advisory services to our clients. We have more than 30 years of experience doing just that. We look forward to continuing to meet your needs.

For Stovall, Grandey & Allen, it’s more than numbers – it’s year round relationships.
