🎉 Happy Retirement, Stephen! 🎉

Today marks the end of an incredible chapter as we celebrate Stephen Rennehan's final day with the Town of Shelburne.

For 46 years, Stephen has been a dedicated member of our Public Works team, helping to keep our community running smoothly. His hard work, commitment, and willingness to lend a hand have left a lasting impact on our town and on the many colleagues who have had the pleasure of working alongside him over the years.

Last week, staff, Council, family, and friends gathered to recognize Stephen's remarkable career and to thank him for his decades of service to the residents of Shelburne.

On behalf of the Town of Shelburne, we extend our sincere gratitude for 46 years of dedication and wish Stephen all the very best in his well-earned retirement. May this next chapter be filled with good health, happiness, relaxation, and plenty of time to enjoy the things you love most.

Thank you, Stephen, for everything you have done for our community. You will be greatly missed.

Please join us in congratulating Stephen and wishing him a happy retirement! 👏🎉
