2. Personnel Matters
a. Blake Fawley, the Manager for Benson Communications is leaving for Florida to begin his college career in his quest for a degree in computer design. It is with true sadness, appreciation, and hope that we will be saying “goodbye.” Sadness over the fact that he will be leaving us after becoming the employee with the third longest employment. At the current age of nineteen (19), he has been a part of “The Team” for four (4) years. He has always been inspirational as he shared his faith and sense of humor with all of us. But his leaving is also viewed with great appreciation for the work he has done and the friendships he has created. He will always be remembered by those in the Benson and U4 familiy, as well as those he has provided service to. We wish you well!!!!
b. New Manager Search – The search has begun for a new Manager for Benson Communications. It is our intent to bring in an individual who espouses our family attitude and who has knowledge and talent in the realm of computer repair, installation, and web design, just to mention a few. If you know of any quality-mided individuals like this, please forward this email to them.
c. Samuel Patrick, Technician has reached a level that few young men ever achieve. This quiet young man has recently completed the demanding requirements to receive the award of Eagle Scout with the Boy Scouts of America. He completed work in areas of interacting with nature, knot tying, civil service, cooking and many others in gaining this award. We are very proud of Sam and his “Stick-to-itiveness.”
3. “From the Workbench”
