Last week colleagues, Board members and people who have worked with Frances over the years in a number of capacities, gathered together to give her the send off she deserved.
CEO Jane Goodman presented Frances with lovely retirement gifts – some practical and some sentimental.
Frances said, “I would like to say a big thank you to everyone for the beautiful gifts and flowers I received at my retirement “bash”. Given that the first few months in the year is a very busy time preparing for three audits I haven’t really had time to ponder on retirement. I don’t think the reality of it is going to hit me until next week.”
She added, “It has been a pleasure to work with you all, through the laughter, the tears and the challenges that have been thrown at us but which we have pulled together and come out the other end still standing.”
We hope you have a fabulous retirement Frances – you truly deserve it and we thank you for all your hard work and dedication over the years.
