Dear All

I have been overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of my friends and colleagues in the Eastern Synod on my retirement from work for the URC.  Thank you all so much for my wonderful presents, flowers, etc!  I have enjoyed working alongside you on all kinds of different projects, situations and problems over the past almost 23 years and will certainly miss your kindness, support and dedication to your respective churches.  Now it is time for me to enjoy time with my husband, children, grandchildren and the rest of my family before I am too old to do so, and I wish you all health and happiness for the future. 

With very best wishes 

Penelope
