Retirement

ANNOUNCEMENT

Tom McManus – 40 Years, Director of Finance

It is with mixed emotions that I announce the retirement of Tom McManus as Director of Finance, Shared Financial Services.   I am pleased for Tom as he is now able to spend the time he wants with his family and will perhaps finally learn to play golf.  On the other hand, he has been a great performer for a very long time and has contributed significantly to ABARTA’s success.  He will be missed.  Tom’s retirement will become effective January 1, 2014.  He will be around through year-end close and has agreed to answer the phone if we have questions. 

Please join me in wishing Tom well as he moved to the next stage of his life.
