Letters

No. 1 in My Heart

As I reflect over the past 34 years, I have many memories of our time together — students, alumni, faculty, staff, co-workers and friends.

It won’t be the work-related memories I take with me, although I could not have done my job without you. Rather, it is the essence of you, the person, how you spoke, the expressions you used, the way we could count on each other, how we shared the hard times, sad times, good times and many laughs  — that is what will remain with me.  That is what friendship is all about.

Thank you for the wonderful retirement party, with the surprises and amazing gifts. These words are insufficient to express the depth of my gratitude to all of you for your part in my wonderful time here. You and U of G will always be No. 1 in my heart.

Thanks for Good Wishes

To my dear friends and colleagues who attended my recent retirement party at the Guelph Turfgrass Institute, and to all those who expressed their good wishes on my departure from the University: my sincere thanks and appreciation for all the gifts, kind words and support. Until our paths cross again, all the best.
