Dear Editor,

I would like to thank Ann Murray for her tenure at the YMCA.

Ann brought many talents to the table and her forward thinking and ability to corral the forces to get things done has been appreciated.

The summer program for scholars has been a success, the soccer field, the mentorship program, her artful landscaping, her stressing membership and making folks feel welcome from all over Selma.

I wish her well as she retires and hope to see her around the Y as an attendee now!

God bless you, Ann Murray.

I believe you have truly followed this verse from the New Testament: “Whatever you do, do your work [a]heartily, as for the Lord [b]rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.” (Colossians 3:23-24)
