Retirement a time of change

As some of my readers will know at the end of 2014, Dec. 31, I will be retiring from Migneault Greenwood where I have worked for the last five years. Over the years I have worked with many great businesses and have made many good friends.

As some of my readers will know at the end of 2014, Dec. 31, I will be retiring from Migneault Greenwood where I have worked for the last five years. Over the years I have worked with many great businesses and have made many good friends.

It’s time for a change. Scared? Yes I am. I have worked since I was 15 years old and had children which, in our days we only had a week off and it was back to work again. It’s sad some of our children had to be raised by babysitters.

As of today’s date I have given up other things I love to do but have added some new ones. I am sad to say I won’t be doing any more news items so if anyone has anything they’d like to put in the paper, they can contact Becky at [email protected]. She’d be happy to assist you.

Thank you to everyone who stopped me and said how much they enjoyed my news articles. I enjoyed writing them and, without some of the friends and family I had to write about, there would have been no news. Some articles were happy and some articles sad.

Mel and I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year.

This poem was sent to me by a friend. As you go to pastures new Remember those who worked with you. Think of us office bound, longing for sun. And we’ll think of you out there having great fun. As you are wise you will no doubt wonder. How will they get by without a blunder. But we’ll learn and laugh and then we’ll say How you would never have done it that way. And even at times if we’ve driven you mad We thank you most sincerely for the great times we’ve had. Whatever aspirations you now hold in your heart We wish you the best retirement right from the start. Keep in touch, let us know how you are; Send us a postcard from near and afar.
