Goodbye Jenny. (Letters).


Dear editor,

I gather from ads in the press for a Director of Pensions that Jenny Mason is about to retire. If that is so, I would like to say how much I have valued the contribution Jenny has made over the years, both as assistant to the previous incumbent Refers to an entity that is currently in power. For example, in politics, the "incumbent senator" is the person who holds that office today. An "incumbent company" is an organization that has been providing goods and services for some time. See ILEC.  and as director herself.

Jenny is knowledgeable professionally, committed personally and accessible to members; with her sense of humour Noun 1. sense of humour - the trait of appreciating (and being able to express) the humorous; "she didn't appreciate my humor"; "you can't survive in the army without a sense of humor"

, ready smile and acute perception, she will be a hard act to follow. I am sure I am not the only member of the pension plan who has benefited from her willingness to put aside the cliches beloved of counsellors and say, "My advice ... " More precisely, I well remember a time when she said to me, "If I were you I would take your money and run."

Thanks, Jenny, and many years of happy retirement, enjoying some of the benefits of the pension plan you have managed so well.
