A Milestone, 40 Years in the Making

There are many milestones in life...first tooth, walking, graduations, marriage, children. Today, my dad celebrates a major milestone in his life. He is retiring. At 5pm, he will close a chapter in his life that has been open for 40 years. That's right...he's been the "telephone man" for 40 years now.

Dad, I am so happy for you. You have worked hard your entire life, not just the past 40 years. I look forward to seeing what projects you will take on and how your hobbies will flourish. So, get the hammer polished and practice your aim at the alarm clock. Monday morning is your new beginning...the best is yet to come.
