A Message From Lorelei:
"After much thought, I have decided it’s time for me to retire and move on to my next full-time role: enjoying life at a more reasonable pace. This decision comes with a mix of emotions. I am incredibly grateful for the 20 years I’ve spent working alongside such talented and dedicated people.
Over the years, I’ve watched marriages begin, babies be born, and holidays celebrated together. I’ve dressed up for Halloween (and won the contest a few times), hidden Easter eggs, and decorated the Christmas tree more than once. Hickory Springs has truly been my home away from home, and I’ve built friendships here that will last a lifetime. The relationships we’ve built, the challenges we’ve tackled, and the successes we’ve achieved together have meant more to me than I can fully express. I deeply appreciate the support, teamwork, and camaraderie I’ve experienced throughout my time here.
As I move into this next chapter, I plan to spend my days gardening, woodworking, learning to play the banjo (apologies in advance to my neighbors), doing a bit of hard labor, and tackling my long-awaited retirement project—bringing my Land Cruiser back to life. I will always be grateful for my time here and wish the company- and each of you- continued success, much happiness and good health."
Warm regards, Lorelei
