When the SA called me, and asked me if I knew the street and if I could get there in 15 minutes, I guessed the last name on the file (cool parlor trick, but really, there's just 3 houses on the street, so my odds were good.) ;-)
I explained that it was my pastor, I'd have to call ahead before I accepted the file to be sure she and her husband would be comfortable with a parishioner being part of the process.
I called ahead and introduced myself as Jessica Ward the signing agent, they said ok, we'll see you soon--I asked if they would be comfortable with me signing them and they said "Oh, you're OUR Jessica Ward!!"
They were pleasantly surprised and it was one of my favorite loan signings ever.
In the end, we'd just spent a month camping in Africa together, so our boundaries weren't exactly where they might have been say a year ago! They had no problem with it.
