The people from her dept. had a lunch for her. We all showed up for that of course.
Parker and his little smokey.
Then they threw a party and served punch and cake and had some people speak nice words that had worked with her over the years.
She got a cool trophy.
Reese and Blakelee gave grandma flowers in front of everyone. Parker is climbing under the table.
More of the lunch bunch.
For those of you who know my mom this was a complete surprise. She worked for the School District for thirty years, twenty four in payroll. Our vacations revolved around payroll. I think we all thought she would never leave this job. Gregg and I are sorry we don't have an in in payroll anymore but we are very happy to have more time and easier vacation planning in the furture with the Adams. There were alot of very nice sentiments from her co-workers. I'm sure she'll miss her friends.

ReplyDeleteWe made a super fast trip to Quincy for Steve's 30 yr reunion and for Chase's reception. Wished we would have had more time to come and visit. We ran into Katie Riley in the airport!
Happy Retirement, Cara! Glad to see they did something really nice for her.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Cara Lee! You so deserved all the accolades you received. I hope to be able to do the same some day in the not so near future. Tell her to enjoy the time and especially those grand kids - they grow up way too fast.
