Formerly known as Tax Service Plus, GAP Accounting Services Inc. has been a local mainstay in Cottage Grove, OR, since 1987. The business was purchased by Louis Roner in 1996. Over the 20 years of his ownership, his wife, step-daughter, and granddaughter worked for the business. In 2015, Louis’s granddaughter, Crystal Hawley took over the daily operations and purchased the business in 2016.
