As we celebrate two remarkable retirements, we invite you to add your voice to the Kudoboards honoring Joan Frosch and Todd Bedell!

Whether it’s a memory, a message of thanks, a bit of wisdom they shared, or a favorite moment, your words will help recognize the impact Joan and Todd have had on our community.

Please take a moment to post a message to one (or both!) of their Kudoboards—it’s a simple way to say thank you and send them off with appreciation, joy, and plenty of well-earned kudos.
