Retiring Soon?  Submit Your Picture to CAPS

In commemoration of hundreds of looming retirements, CAPS has created this web page devoted to retirement pictures. Given what we expect to be a large number of retirements in the coming month and years, we want EVERYONE to be able to share a memory of a valued colleague who has or soon will leave our ranks. Send CAPS a digital picture of your favorite soon to be retiree, and we will post it. Be sure to include correct spelling and a little about what made your colleague special.
