We have had some big changes at Al's office. First Sheryl let Al know that she was looking for a job closer to home. She lives in Aurora and driving to Salem twice a week just wasn't cost effective for her. Al made some calls to agents in the Canby area and Sheryl was offered a job just a few minutes from home. We will really miss her loyalty and availability and her sweet personality. She also provided all of us with the most amazing jams and home grown vegees every summer. We're happy & we're sad.
Several weeks later, Patti resigned as she is going back into nursing. It's been 11 years since she worked in that field so her learning curve is going to be huge. But she is so smart that she won't have any trouble. So, if you have a heart attack, be sure to do it on a day when Patti is working. She will take awesome care of you and you'll be back on your feet in no time. We will definately miss Patti's energy and enthusiasm. Our loss is Salem Hospital's gain.
The sweet part of all these good-byes is that both ladies are doing what they need to do. God provided both Sheryl & Patti with just the right opportunities! Al has hired a delightful young woman to join our team. She will work three days a week and fill in when anyone is on vacation. Sara is fully licensed and State Farm trained so she will be able to slide right into our office. I'm excited to meet her.
The picture is of our farewell dinner celebration at Amedaus here in Salem. This is a lovely fine dining restaurant with absolutely delicious food. If you ever eat there, save room for the creme brulee cake. O MY GOODNESS!
