A message from Harold “Mac” MacFarland
Senior Vice President, Investments

Harold MacFarland Bio Image

A journey that I began in 1986 has come to its fruition. It was a journey that exceeded my wildest expectations and wishes.

From my first client at Thompson McKinnon through December 2023 at Raymond James I have had the honor and privilege of serving hundreds of amazing individuals and families, some in their 3rd generation. Thirty-seven years ago, I started as a blue collared transplant from Connecticut to become a senior vice president, investments at one of the most prestigious investment firms in the world. As they say, “Only in America!”

Tadd Hicks joined me as a partner in 1997 to form the MacFarland/Hicks Financial Group. Margaret Noel joined us a few weeks later as our customer service associate. And together we’ve been serving your investment needs ever since.

As with all things in nature the old are replaced by the new. Lukas Bridenbeck joined us in 2021. Tadd, Margaret and Lukas will continue to serve you under the banner of Hicks Bridenbeck Financial Group of Raymond James. Thank you one and all for this experience of a lifetime.
