Yeo & Yeo Honors 32 Employees for Longevity
“As I reflect on another year of milestones at Yeo & Yeo, I’m filled with gratitude for the incredible people who make this firm what it is. Longevity at Yeo & Yeo is not just about years of service — it’s about commitment, care, and the steady leadership that comes from showing up day after day for our clients, our colleagues, and our communities. Every person recognized this year has helped strengthen the culture that defines us — one built on trust, teamwork, and a shared belief in making a difference.
While I’m honored to be included among those celebrating milestones, what stands out most to me is the collective dedication represented here. Thirty-two individuals across our companies have spent many years building relationships, mentoring others, and upholding the values that have guided Yeo & Yeo for over a century. To each of you — thank you. Your contributions continue to shape who we are and who we aspire to be.”
