Linnea Feriks
Owner
Linnea Freriks, a devoted wife and mother, takes pride in her family's achievements. She is the spouse of Jon, co-owner of Mac Adventures LLC in Macatawa, MI, a thriving business that keeps him engaged, particularly during the bustling summer months. Linnea and Jon are navigating the transition to becoming "Empty Nesters" as their two sons, both graduates of Holland Christian High School, pursue business majors in college.
With a professional background in administrative manufacturing, Linnea draws inspiration from her entrepreneurial lineage. Her grandfathers were both successful entrepreneurs, with her father leading Van's Pattern Corporation to international recognition before its sale in 2021. Linnea's other grandfather initiated CNC Precision & Machining, a family venture in which she actively participated during her high school and college years. Guided by her father's philosophy of leading by example, Linnea cherishes the values instilled by her hard-working and community-focused parents and grandparents.
Linnea is in a meaningful role at Comfort Keepers, a company dedicated to "People Elevating People." Aligned with this value, she emphasizes a team approach that extends from caregivers in clients' homes to the leadership team. Prioritizing the well-being of the Comfort Keepers family, the organization delivers personalized in-home care that addresses the physical, emotional, spiritual, and community needs of every client. Linnea finds fulfillment in contributing to a workplace culture that is built on values of compassion, teamwork, and joy.
In March 2002, Comfort Keepers commenced its service to the local Holland community, with Linnea acquiring the business in 2003. Over the years, she has expanded its reach with locations in Holland, St. Joseph, and Portage, MI. Linnea considers herself fortunate to play a vital role in providing quality care to the community, working alongside a team of amazing, kind-hearted individuals who share her commitment to making a positive impact.
