It Is All About Timing

Hi everyone,

After 29 years at SALS, I am going to retire. My last day in the office will be September 5.

I’m happy that I still have a few more weeks to work with you all. Your dedication inspires me and makes this job special. I will miss the friends I’ve made and the good times we’ve had together.

Happy trails,
Elaine

Please save the date:

On Friday September 5, 2008 at 2 pm we will be having a party at SALS in honor of Elaine Baker’s retirement.

More information will follow next week. We hope you can join us.
