The luck of the Irish is not the driving force behind the success of Laurie Irish-Jones. She learned the value of hard work from her parents. Now, as CEO of the family business, Laurie Irish-Jones has to put all of her attention on what she is best at — running the business. She says, “Bob Miller Jr. and everyone at Miller Gesko are truly partners of mine, my family and our business. I can focus on my business and my family and not worry about the rest because I know we are in good hands.” Miller Gesko now serves three generations of the Irish family. After Laurie’s father passed away Miller Gesko became a vital part of estate planning and helped Laurie’s mother set up accounts for all 15 grandchildren. Laurie appreciates Miller Gesko for recognizing every person as an individual, “it’s not just me, my mom or my four sisters Bob (Miller Jr.) takes care of, he has always made time for every grandchild. He understands everyone is their own person and we all have different journeys.”
