With so many of our colleagues leaving, we will reorganize the newsroom. We will talk about that in September. If you have thoughts or ideas on what you are currently doing and how you might contribute to our restructured newsroom, please talk to the manager of your department.

I would like to thank all our departing staff for their service to The Record and the community. We wish them well as they retire or pursue other interests. We'll have more to say about their time with us on their departure days.

Lynn Haddrall

Editor-in-Chief
