Congratulations, Bob
Joe Fisher
Bob:
Congratulations and best wishes, Bob, on your "retirement"! You
are a much-needed bright spot in Darke County! I appreciate all
you have done (and attempted to do) for our community. I'm
especially grateful for your innumerable adroit, perceptive,
intelligent, (and conservative) contributions to the Daily Advocate,
The Early Bird, and Edison Community College.
As an avid reader and loyal supporter of the local printed media, I was
very sorry to see you leave the Daily Advocate (their great loss), but
glad when you arrived at The Early Bird (their great gain!)
I'm also first-hand appreciative of your efforts and contributions at
Edison Community College. I took your Technical Writing course
about five years ago at Edison. You were tough, and would not
settle for less than what I was capable of. I remember turning in
what I thought was a pretty good rough draft of the "Problem/Solution
Report" term paper. You responded critically (and correctly) with
numerous questions and suggestions for improving the paper. I
have a full-time day job, but I remember sitting up very late at night,
trying to perfect that paper by answering your questions and
suggestions, (and yelling at you through my computer screen all the
while!) In the end, it was well worth it of course, and I really
wouldn't have it any other way. (You gave me 25 out of 25 for the
paper, and commented: "Excellent job! I'm keeping yours for
future examples.") Thank you so much for that experience!
Again, thank you, Bob, for your abundant, gifted, and perspicacious
contributions to our community, and best wishes for a healthy, happy
and fruitful "retirement"!
