<p class="MsoNormal">Dear CEDs and Directors,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Today is Steve Gouker’s real final day with Cooperative Extension. In addition to his responsibilities for heckling the Director of Maricopa County, Steve has done an outstanding job in Navajo County. I want to thank him for his service,
dedication, and support of Cooperative Extension. He has had a positive impact on so many lives, and he will be sorely missed.
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I want to wish him all the best in his future adventures.<o:p></o:p></p>
