I’m writing to let you know that Kathryn Boyle, our Office and Facility Manager has submitted her resignation notice. Kathryn has been with us for over a decade, and she has been a critical steady presence of care and commitment, especially over the transitions of the last few years. If you’ve ever helped put on an event, or helped with Sunday, or called the office for basically anything — you know how important Kathryn’s presence has been for Foothills.
Kathryn has grown tremendously during her time with us, and with that we can only be happy for her that she has found a position that is a wonderful opportunity for her. When I met with her, I told her that while I was already grieving her absence, and already wondering how the heck we would figure things out without her, I am sincerely happy for her and support her in taking this move. Below you’ll find a note from Kathryn where she shares more about what’s next.
I know that many of us will want to say goodbye and thank you to Kathryn, so we hope you’ll join us on Sunday November 24th (at the 8:30 and 10:00, and between the services) when she will be with us — without any work duties! Come for hugs and thank yous, maybe a few tears, and lots of good wishes.
As I said, we have a lot to figure out with her absence, and we are just beginning to figure out a plan for interim coverage until we can fill the position more permanently. Once we have more information, I will be in touch. For now, if you are able to step up and help with hospitality over the next few weeks, that is deeply appreciated! If you aren’t already a part of our hospitality team, sign up here.
Let me know if you have any questions.
In partnership,
Rev. Gretchen
Dear Foothills Folks,
It is with mixed emotions that I would like to tell the congregation that I will be leaving my position as Office and Facilities Manager at Foothills.
I will be starting a new career as Administrative Manager and Provider Relations with Seniors Helping Seniors of Northern Colorado. I am looking forward to this growth opportunity with the foundation I have gained here. Maybe I’ll see some of you at this great program.
My last official day will be Thursday, November 21; however I’m hoping to see you Sunday, November 24th for hugs and goodbyes.
In my time with Foothills, I have had the privilege and pleasure of knowing so many wonderful people. This job has allowed me to grow both personally and professionally, and provided me with the flexibility that I needed at times in my life. It has also given me so many opportunities to serve, as well as be supported by this community. I truly love you all and will miss you.
I’m looking forward to seeing you all this Sunday and next week.
With gratitude,
Kathryn Boyle
Kathryn,
I am so sad to see you go. When I started at Foothills, you were so welcoming and even knew my name right away. You will be missed. I hope this new chapter in your life will be wonderful. Seniors Helping Seniors is so lucky to have you.
Congratulations and Best Wishes! It has been a pleasure to know you. Your book recommendations on the Stephanie Plum mysteries enhanced my reading list. I have no doubt that you will be missed.
