I write this letter to announce my formal retirement from Nippa Sauna Stoves as General Manager, effective as of June 1, 2011.

Dean Michaels has purchased the business, and he, along with his grandson’s Matthew and Steven, will be taking over my job(s). During the transition, I will be working with Dean in the background on many aspects of the business.

Please except my sincere and heartfelt thank-you to each and every one of you that I have had the privilege of working with over the last 18 years. I am now ready to move on to the next phase in my life, which will be operating a canvas shop out of my home.

It has been an honor to work for a company that produced a product line that I was proud of, and I know that Dean will continue to produce the product line with the same high standards.

Thank you once again, I will miss you!

Tina
