From Kathy:

It's official I am now Retired.
What a fantastic last day. Lots of hugs, best wishes and don't be a stranger. My job as the Branch Supervisor at the New Richland Public Library was the best job with so many precious memories. Everyone in New Richland always made me feel like family.
Thank you to all who came to see me today and all the well wishes here. You have made my day and I will always treasure the memories. 💕
