Heather retired after almost 20 years working at both the Tantallon and Hubbards branches.

Heather and her friend, Leslie, walk the trail almost everyday, so staff organized a surprise party on the trail.“Heather is famous for pulling tricks on staff , especially on April Fools Day, so it was nice to pull off this surprise for her,” says Vicki Smith.
