Alan Dragoo: Retirement

March 11, 2001

A week ago, I retired after nearly 40 years as a government scientist. I will not confine my remarks to my retirement. Instead, I will extrapolate from there to the broader topic of transitions. In the context of transitions, I will touch base with the scripture passages for this week. I will season this mixture with some understanding that came from a recent trip to a northern wilderness of Ontario.
