After 50 years of dedication and service to Court Services, it is time to say goodbye. 😂 No, not to the two wonderful staff pictured, but to the Old Yellow couch.

This couch was manufactured in 1973. But its origins to our department are a mystery that perhaps one of our retired followers can shed a light on! “Old Yellow” has for sure held its fair share of counseling sessions!
