Congrats to Postsecondary Evening Building Supervisor Ron Simpson on his retirement. Ron was with C-TEC 16 years and was a nightly presence in the postsecondary center, keeping an eye out and being the go-to guy for many years. Asked what he plans for retirement, he told us that he intends to do a “lot of four wheeling, and is going on a cruise in October.”
We appreciate your time at C-TEC, Ron. Enjoy your free evenings!
