Congratulations Joni Metzger
Today we say good-bye to our dear friend and colleague, Joni Metzger. She is retiring from her position in Donor Services effective September 8. Joni has been a gift processor in Donor Services for twelve years and before that she was with NITA (National Institute for Trial Advocacy) for ten years. During her time with us in DS, we came to rely on her meticulous attention to detail, her thoroughness in every task she was handed, and especially her dry wit and quiet humor. She will be deeply missed, but we wish her well as she and her husband, Jr. head out to new adventures with her sweet grandchildren and her two adorable kittens. Please join of us in Donor Services as we thank her for her hard work and many accomplishments and wish her all the best as she departs the University and settles into the retired life.
