鈥淕iovanna Rico retired March 5 after 39 years of exemplary service to the 七星彩开奖 Library. If you have ever borrowed a book from our library, there's a very good chance it was the subject of her loving attentions."
Dear 七星彩开奖 Colleagues,聽 I hope this email finds you all well.

I want to let all my 七星彩开奖 friends, colleagues, and acquaintances, know how much I appreciate the well wishes and support I received on my recent retirement from 七星彩开奖.
Although my retirement is now official, I struggle with mixed emotions. As anticipated, I miss many of you already. What I do not miss is the commute to and from work or the early mornings. What I do miss is the camaraderie I shared with you with the common pursuit of instructing and enlightening students.
Some of you I may never see again. Others, I hope I do when we are able to gather once again. For now, I am simply going to try and enjoy life in the current circumstances.
Your generous gifts of a MasterClass membership and a Steve's Music gift certificate will add to the enjoyment of my retirement.
Again, thank you.
Rod retired Feb. 5 after working at the College for 39 years in various roles, including the Help Desk, the Library and the Career Resource Centre. Rod is also a 七星彩开奖 graduate.聽
