We knew we had the skill to win. It was just a matter of going out and getting it done.

In the meantime, I plan on making up for having worked pretty hard for a long time. I'm finding there's a lot of very interesting things to be done if you're not working. I'm certainly finding that life can be very full even without work.

I'm really proud of the organization, and I'm very confident that's it's been left in good hands. FCEDC should really be able to serve the businesses and the people of this county.

I truly loved my job, and it was a major, major part of my life.
