Testimonial - Sharon Kasper

"It's all about life balance - and that's what Greater Shepparton offers. As well as that, I used to pay thousands of dollars to get a view that now I can get standing at my back door."

Sharon previously lived in Melbourne and worked for a car dealership for nine years. When Sharon told the company she worked for that they couldn't provide her with the opportunities she was after, her manager let her know about a dealership the company had brought into in Provincial Victoria.

"My employer at the time said to me, 'You'll love this place, I think it will really suit what you are looking for'."

"So after a short trip to Greater Shepparton I was hooked."

"Being married and having a three year old daughter, you have to think of your family's needs as well as your own. Greater Shepparton offered everything we could want as a family."

"When we first moved here, we got a knock on the door and there was a lady standing there with a cake - it was surreal, like something out of a television show! Someone else sent over their daughter to introduce herself because she knew we were around the same age."

"People here have such a fantastic outlook on life-they smile and say hello in the street and the shopkeepers even remember your name. Suddenly I'm not just a face in the crowd, I'm Sharon Kasper who plays netball, works at Darryl Twitt and lives in Dookie."

"We've been involved in tree planting and weed pulling days, and we even helped paint the old Dookie train - it's our slice of heaven."
