Josh and Laurette Homan have been Coral Springs residents for many years and are so happy to be raising their daughters in the town where they were also raised and now work, play and have a multitude of friends.
Their beautiful girls are Milan, 17 and Meiling, 11, who are both busy with school and recreational activities. Milan is a Junior at Stoneman Douglas High School and is active in Debate, Deca, Best Buddies and the Teen Political Forum. Her favorite academic subject is accounting. Meiling is in the 6th grade at Coral Springs Middle School where she pays the Obo, Piano and Guitar in the band. Her favorite class is World History and when she has time, the budding artist in her is busy drawing. Mom says, “Both girls are avid readers. There is no time for TV in the Homan house!”
Owners of a commercial insurance agency in Coral Springs since 1997, Laurette and Josh are thrilled to be celebrating their 20th year in business right here in their hometown. Both of them are graduates of Coral Springs High School, to which Laurette shouts, “Go Colts!” Josh and Laurette are also busy with community activities. Dad is a coach for Girls U12 soccer and is on the Coral Springs Youth Soccer Board of Directors. Laurette sits on several Coral Springs City committees and is also Vice President on the Board of Directors for the Coral Springs Museum of Art.
She tells us that family activities revolve around food…”We are foodies! We love to try new foods and unique restaurants.” They also love music and attend concerts as often as possible.
Fun fact about the Homan sisters; both of them were born at Coral Springs Medical Center. Milan was awarded a $2,000 bond from the City for being the last baby born in Coral Springs in the 20th Century!
Laurette, known for her colorful postings on social media, comments about what she and her family enjoy most about living where they do. She says, “Coral Springs is where Josh and I grew up. It is especially enjoyable living here raising OUR daughters in our hometown. There is never an occasion where we are out in the City and don’t run into friends. This is truly a pace where we live, work and play.”
In finality, I ask the family for further musings from any other members and am met with a quick note from Laurette, the family’s official spokeswoman. It simply reads, #BLESSED
