Happily Retired Now! (The Happy Retirement Song)

# data[].attributes.body
Hi there Ms, Wander, I will never forget the day that I first met you in Rm. 123. 1997. At that time Rm. 123 was the Baer cafe I might say and Mr. Scott was the the teacher and Ms. Zee  was his Para. Those were the days. Mr. Scott was n't "having it" You need coffee you better get it and be done before the school buses star to unload!!!!  I was in the room and you walked to me and you started talking to me as if you knew. Mr.Scott was n't having it so he put you out. Well, I don't know what you saw in me, but you just kept coming to talk to me. I was not an employee at that time I was just doing my internship. My internship was over and for what ever reason I came to Baer on days that I am off from my work just to volunteer. In Feb 24th 2001 I started working at Baer and our friendship just blossomed into sisterhood. Now when your Little Sister is retiring you know something is wrong with Big Sister. Well the is call plain old  good planning and I don't envy cos God's timing is the best. You have paid your dues to society by working with BCPSS all these years and now is time to go and do as you please!!!!!!!!!!!. My dear Sister, It has been a great privilege to have you as my friend and a true Sister. My lunch breaks will never be the same without you, Sister Marlyn, and Uncle Robert. Even Mr. Jed can testify to that. Remember one day when Jed was making his rounds and came in 123 saw us: Robert, Marlyn, David, you, and I. eating, and just having fun? What did he do? He could not help himself but nodded his head, smiled and walked away.
I will forever cherish our Friendship/Sisterhood, all the blessings, and memories.
Enjoy your retirement, God bless and be safe. Love Always,
Sister " Dji Dji"

Dearest Ms. Wanda,
Since I joined Baernation, I have always wanted to work with you. I thought , I will never have the chance. Heaven must have heard my fervent prayer. You were finally in my classroom on your last working year. Save the best for last, they say. I will forever be thankful to have worked with you. You were such a blessing in so many ways. Your work ethics is just awesome. You were there for the students and the staff even  before I say or ask for something. More than work, you taught me about life. I will miss you more than you’ll ever know as you are  not just a co-worker, you are a friend and a confidante. This is not goodbye but until I see you again. I am just a call and text away. I wish you all the best at retirement , as you truly deserve. Take care, stay healthy and stay safe. God bless and I love you! - Ms. Marie Amodia❤️
