Default Yes, I Did It My Way
Today was my last official day at the office! My company sold. As I was the last one to leave, I played the song we all have heard played for Derek Jeter.

To all that is about to retire, or have retired, the words of this song "spoke" to me and gave me great joy...because I did do it my way!

Enjoy: https://www.google.com/#q=frank+sinatra+i+did+it+my+way

Or hear it here: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8r...royal_creation

We will be joining all of you in lower paradise end of November!

Leave the lights on for us!

God bless you all!

Joe (retired last year) and Lillian (the one who just retired)

That's awesome! Congratulations! I remember that day 6 years ago. It was a day of mixed emotions. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.

Congratulations and good luck in TV. Although, from what we saw, it's not luck. It's keeping the smile going and loving life. We hope to return permanently at some point so for now I live vicariously through posts like yours.

Safe travels!
