Sorry, Vickey & Amy, but I really have to jump in here---because eons before you guys, I was the first of the 3 of us who worked at South Pasadena P.L. while in library school & beyond-- then eventually transitioned to Pasadena P.L. What an interesting time we all had there--with the library & staff, government & community, funding issues, the formative years of library systems, the amazing evolution of online library services, etc. Everyone there was really sorry when you left Pasadena, Vickey, but we were happy for you in your move to Sunnyvale. When you headed north, we encouraged your friendship with Sunnyvale's ex-Pasadenan and dynamic Finance Director Mary Bradley. What a great working relationship and lasting friendship you forged! Most of the members of the group who worked together in Pasadena have moved on to other jobs or retirement, but through the years we have kept track of one another. So I send a thousand thanks to you, Vickey, and to Mary & Amy & Anne & Mary Ann & Elaine & the rest of the former Pasadena staff members (you know who you are!)for staying in touch and for being such excellent librarians and such warm, wonderful, caring & supportive friends!
