Harold says, “It took me 65 years to find a job I liked. Then I was too old to do it!” Harold became Pantry Manager shortly before Linda Mahan retired from Family Connection and has worked through lots of changes in the pantry, from handwritten records to daily postings of data online with the food banks. We were lucky to have a man of Harold’s cali- ber and work ethic during a time of major transition. Harold retires to a beautiful home in the Mineral Bluff community and will make a few trips back home to Michigan to enjoy visiting family members. Harold and Jeanette attend The Ridge Community Church and have many volunteer positions within the congregation. Harold’s parting wisdom is, “Trust in God. It has gotten me a long way.” We will miss you, Harold. Wet a line for us! Harold Zoldock laughs as Zora Herr snaps a photo of “Gone Fish- in” at the retirement reception (Top). Volunteers from the Min- eral Springs Center wish Harold a happy retirement. (L) Over 40 people came to wish Harold well in his newly found spare time of retirement. (R) Family Connection will miss this gentleman.
