Donna and Phil Gilles enjoy a well deserved reputation as the premiere Realtors on Pine Island. This testimonial is not about their considerable real estate expertise. My name is Capt John "GiddyUp” Bunch. I am the proud Founder of Operation Open Arms. This amazing SW FL military outreach program took root on Pine Island in 2005. The mission is a very simple one. "To afford US Troops on combat leave every luxury imaginable without any cost to our GI’s or their families.” Like in sports, numbers always tell the true story. As of June 2008, there are 155 Operation Open Arms Sponsors. (A Sponsor is defined by those willing to give free meals, lodging, fishing charters, rounds of golf, and gift certificates) There are only 4 Realtors in Lee and Collier County who are Operation Open Arms sponsors. Thank you Donna and Phil. As well, thank you for the service of your only son in defense of our country. Best in Real Estate and Best in giving back to their community, This defines The Gilles Family.

Thank you for your participation as a buyer’s agent in the purchase of our new home. As we have moved around the country and found homes it was not always a pleasant experience. You made it different this time. Your attitude and efficiency are like a "breath of fresh air.” We thank you and we will surely tell family and friends that are in need of real estate services. Thanks again.”
