A week ago today, the ITS:Team said “So long and farewell” to one of our colleagues and friends, Melissa Haffeman. Starting on June 30, Melissa will be off on a new adventure in Washington state, returning to her roots with a new position in K-12. However, in typical ITS: fashion, we sent her off in style with a party and, of course, food!
The food is readied for the guest of honor’s arrival.
Melissa admires Weston’s new addition to his family while her husband, Mike, looks on.
Many gathered to wish Melissa well on her grand new adventure.
Melissa chats with her teammates.
Joseph says a few words to Melissa on behalf of the group.
Chad also shares a few words to wish Melissa well.
Melissa thanks everyone for coming and states she will miss all of the ITS:Team.
Parting swag for the guest of honor, including a baseball cap for her son, Alden.
Melissa thanked the group for their support over her years at the college and shared that the relationships she forged with those of us on the ITS:Team will be with her always. I believe many of us feel the same about her.
Best wishes to you and your family, Melissa! You will be greatly missed!
Thanks, Dave Armstrong, for helping take photos!
ITS:Always fun, never boring
Respectfully submitted,
Linda Petro
