Nancy, we will miss you!

 

I’m sorry to report our friend and colleague, Nancy Albrecht, is leaving us to enjoy her much-earned retirement.

  Nancy has worked at the Avon Lake Public Library for over 24 years, starting in the Children’s Department and then moving to Technical Services where she has served as the Acquisitions Specialist for children’s materials.  Nancy processes orders for books and other materials and then receives them and prepares them for the cataloger.  It involves a lot of detail work and a good deal of organization.  Nancy excels at it. She also works at the Circulation desk where you may have had the pleasure of being assisted by her and been treated to one of her warm smiles.

She’s also a wonder at team work, pitching in for other staff and doing whatever it takes to get the job done.  Even more importantly, Nancy is valued for her warmth, her kindness and her evident joy in life. Her co-workers are grateful for her frequent words of encouragement when one of us takes on some new task we’re not quite sure about.  And we will miss her laughter (and husband Skip’s gifts of cinnamon bagels whenever Nancy worked a Saturday!).

Nancy plans to spend time with her mother, enjoy her grandchildren Maya, Andrew, Katie, Jack and Henry, and travel with her beloved husband Skip.  Our loss is their gain.

Enjoy yourself to the fullest, Nancy, and come and see us all often!
