Editor:
I want to thank the City of Avon Park for the last 18 years of having the pleasure of working for the citizens of Avon Park and with my co-workers. I know that I was laid off due to too much manpower and not enough work due to going to recycling. I just want everyone to know there are no hard feelings and truely believe all things happen for a reason.
Although given the the opportunity to bump another employee, I couldn't do that to someone else in this economy and right before Christmas. I truly believe that as God closes one door, He will open another, and it's time for me to start down a new path in this new season in my life. Thank you.
