I was reading the CEO's annual statement for a company and saw this paragraph:
"Southwest Water Company and the California water industry lost one of their "elder statesmen" in November 2003. Reginald A. Stone, a 43-year veteran employee of our Califonria utility, passed away after a brief illness, just weeks before his planned retirement from the company.
A trusted colleague and personal friend, Reg played an integral role in the success of our Utility Group..."
Poor guy. Working for the same company for 43 years and he didn't even get to enjoy retirement.
