So, one of the three that i have talked about leaving, that is now one of the two that is leaving now... Today is his last day ....
He came up to actually say good bye to me just a few moments ago...

I shook his hand and told him I was glad I got to meet him in my life, he has been a good person to cross paths with....
I am also very glad to hear that he has plans, that he has already filled out applications to some places to do some part time work that he will enjoy-- and work he doesn't have to stick to or anything either.

Last month we got news that a co-worker that retired some time last year, died... it had not been a year since he had been gone and it is terribly sad... so I am in hopes with this coworker since he has a plan, he wont have the same story.

I really hope he enjoys retirement...

I have a little tear in my eye... I always liked this co-worker that is going today, he was some times an old grump but with in reason .... He has had a good attitude with "i can only do what I can do"... I think that is one reason why I really like him, gives me a real life example of good thinking, ya know?

I will miss him, for sure... but I am also very glad at the same time-- that He is going away too, getting the heck out of here.
like he said- he wont miss this place with how it is these days.
