Bar News - April 20, 2001 Farewell to Bar from Deborah Cyr 18-Year NHBA Employee To the Membership: It is with mixed emotions that I announce my resignation from the NH Bar Association. I came on board in November 1982 as the office receptionist. Over the years my duties may have changed, but never my dedication to the members and goals of this association. But eventually there comes a time to move on and I have taken the position of Meetings Coordinator for the National Arborist Association in Manchester. I have enjoyed my years here more than I can possibly convey in this letter. I have met wonderful people, had great fun and take with me 18 and a half years of memories that will stay with me forever. I hope the many of you I have come to know over the years will wish me well and remember me fondly. More than anything else, I will miss my co-workers. They are my friends, my support system, my shoulder to cry on, my family. I hope they all know how much they mean to me. Thanks to everyone for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of this organization. I tried to make a difference, I hope I succeeded. Deborah A. Cyr P.S. From the Executive Director: Even in this dawn of the "techno-age," people are still the soul of a service organization. The only bright side to Deb’s departure is that she is leaving for her "dream job"...and we wish her the absolute best as she becomes the ultimate "host" for the National Arborist Association. (Yes, it is true...former NHBA Member Services Coordinator Carol Crossland has lured Deb away to join her at the NAA.) Just a few weeks into her work with the Bar, Deb showed me "the ropes" when I came to work for the executive director at the end of 1982. For me, and probably for most of you, Deb has "always been here": a familiar voice on the phone, making sure the CLE is set up at 6:30 a.m., patiently nudging volunteer faculty for overdue materials, greeting the "regulars" and new lawyers, imagining how we can serve you better, asking about your family and remembering their names—always with a ready joke, usually about herself. We will carry on Deb’s most important contribution to the Bar, making this a pleasant, meaningful place for members, staff and the public to interact, but after 18 and ˝ years of selfless dedication, there is no replacing Deb.
