Radon is an invisible, odorless gas that is a natural radioactive decay product of uranium, a common element in soil and rocks. Radon gas is considered harmless when dispersed in outdoor air but can be a serious health hazard when trapped in buildings.

One of my colleagues, and one of the office’s most successful agents, Diane Tlapa, suffered a terrible tragedy on December 20th when her 8-year old granddaughter, Jaiden, had a horrific snowblower accident at her home in New Hampshire.
