A Legend on His Way to Retirement

A true industry legend
One of a kind boss
Known to many
But extremely special to all of us
 
You are just something else
We mean that in the best way
Your humorous spirit and jokes
Can brighten any day
 
You honestly have no filter
You will say it like it is
You are unapologetically you
But that is who we want you to be
 
You were our boss
But also, entertainer, mentor, and partner
You were a sounding board, comforter
And to many a father                  
 
You built something amazing
To that we can all agree
A legendary company
Where we really love to be
 
You deserve this retirement
More than anyone we know
Pick up your guitar
And do more shows
 
We will continue to build
What you worked on for years
No need to worry
Go pop those beers
 
To an industry legend
Raise your glass, and let's all cheers
As this legend is on his way
To enjoy his retirement years
