It has been 14 years since I have worked for NRRI-CWE but when the email announcing Eulie's retirement arrived I did not have to think, who? what? I smiled and remembered the warm friendly face downstairs who took care of everyone and who cared for everyone. Euile - I wish you the best as you enter into the next phase of your life and thank you for being such a wonderful person. Your spirit can warm ones heart after all of these years!

Another Muffin Meeting
Dear Eulie,
Here at Coleraine, we always received notification of the muffin meetings, but we never received any of those muffins up here! Sorry we missed them! I did not work as closely with you as did the others who have spoken so highly of you, but whenever you and I had any dealings with accounting issues and new procedures/training, you were always very professional and helpful. I could tell that you were very well-respected at NRRI. That message comes through LOUD and CLEAR in this blog, especially in the comments from your family and those who nominated you for your recent well-deserved award/commendation!
I wish you the best in your retirement. Now you will have more time for all of the things that had to wait! CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations!
Eulie, I always enjoyed touching base with you while waiting for meetings with Lucinda. And I'm grateful for your help in learning how things ran at CWE, and for all the day-to-day help and advice you provided. Thank you very much!
I hope you thoroughly enjoy retirement, and wish you all the best.

Shoes to Fill
Eulie,
Can you imagine how many UofM staff have been sent to you for 'processing' either as new employees, opening new accounts, or submitting reimbursements, and figuring out budgets and proposals? Just considering the BugLab work-study students that you've had to baby-sit over the years is mind-boggling....Tamara Swanson, Bucky Moore, Wade Watson, Jeff Butwinick, Dan Turpening, Sammy Pohl...............are any of these ringing a bell?..............perhaps these may be more memorable.....Aaron Undeland, Barb Peichel, John Juaire, Jacque Alexander (Pechin)...........and that is just from the mid-90's.
You've been an icon for CWE. I remember my first day filling out paper work in your office on 3rd floor kitty-corner from the Supply Room before the staff offices were completed on 4th.
With all that aside, it is time to relax. Enjoy. I just hope someone continues to fill the candy jar.

Hi Eulie
Well, what can I say after working with you all these years? Many proposals, papers, and lots of great discussions behind us. You have made my stay at NRRI very enjoyable and you are an inspiration to all of us.
Best wishes on your retirement. Have fun!
