Bittersweet Good Bye!

So many memories...

   

   
   



 
 
 
 
 
 

 
  
 
 

I'm not sure how to say goodbye to all my wonderful WCS Ancient History Scholars, (past and present), their amazing families, and my esteemed colleagues.  I will miss you all so very much, and I can't imagine quite what life will be like without you all.  33 years at WCS have flown by!  Hopefully now and then a Mr. Nicky song will play in your head and you will remember a little bit about ancient history.

My dear friend Mr. Aguirre was able to trace Mr. Nicky, yes - THE MR. NICKY! and asked him to give a shout-out for my retirement.  Here is what the Marvelous Mr. Nicky did instead!
