FARWELL TO SUSAN
Susan Urie joined the RWTO-SCARBOROUGH Executive in 1998. She has had one job on the Executive—the Assistant Treasurer for the Branch. She has been the friendly face, just inside the luncheon door, for every venue where the Branch has met. Susan has collected our luncheon cheques for all these years and kept lists and more lists and used more highlighters than anyone on the Executive. That is a total of 21 years doing the same job! Thank you, Susan, for your dedication to the Scarborough Branch. You will be missed but you have certainly earned the respect of all of us. Enjoy this new retirement phase of your life.
