A retirement party back in Connecticut

On Thursday evening, about 200 people gathered in the Foodshare distribution center for a farewell event.  The food was great, the music was good, the speeches were very touching, and they presented me with a beautiful hand-carved walking stick, a fitting memento of my time at Foodshare.

Best of all, the corporate sponsors, those who attended, and all those who donated raised $130,000 for Foodshare. 

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone involved!

And for all my North Country friends...may we have a similarly successful event in 10 or 15 years upon my second retirement from GardenShare!
