Retirement
I’m out, letting it go, riding off into the sunset if you will. As of 12-31-2024 I will be retiring. I use the word retire, but really it’s more like starting a different chapter in my life. I have worked in the field of human services for 35 years and think it’s time to experience some different things. I can’t not work, I still need an income and am just not built to sit around. I hope to play more guitar, and odd job my way into Social Security. The Pettis County Board is doing their due diligence and actively engaged in the search for the next Executive Director, announcements have been made internally and to stakeholders and the countdown has begun. I’ve made a lot of good friends over the years, seen a lot of changes (some good some not so much), and most importantly forged an agency that is well placed to do good things for the individuals that we serve. Our staff are the finest I’ve ever been around, our budgets sound, and our mission is pure. I feel confident that I’m leaving my replacement a turn key organization. I leave with no regrets and proud of the accomplishment made over a 35 year career. None of it was done alone and I owe a debt of thanks and gratitude to far too many people to list here. Thanks to you all.
