Happy Retirement, Larry!

 

Larry retires

After 27 years of hard work at Sunrise Janitorial Services, Larry Bailey has finally decided to retire! And so, on February 16, a party was held in his honour at Foster’s Clubhouse which was attended by many friends and colleagues.

Larry, who moved to Toronto from Huronia Regional Centre, has has been supported by Community Living Toronto since the mid 1970s.

Many of Larry’s friends and co-workers shared memorable stories of first meeting Larry and talked of his cheerfulness, hard work and determination. Not only when it came to his job, but in his volunteering efforts, as well. For the past 10 years, Larry has been volunteering in our Public Relations and Fundraising Department. He comes early to the office just to see if the department needs any help. His efforts have not gone unnoticed and in 2014, he was recognized as the Public Relations and Fundraising Volunteer of the Year.

In addition to volunteering with Community Living Toronto, Larry is also committed to his volunteer duties at West Neighbourhood House and Word on the Street – where he helps raise money for literacy initiatives.

Even though he is now retired, we know Larry is just a phone call away anytime we need his help – whether that’s at our Annual Picnic, Community Rocks or a helping hand around the office!

Congratulations, Larry!
