Dear Azita and all,

Thank you for your kind words of support. I am so encouraged to know that you 
have felt supported through my efforts, and I have enjoyed reading your 
individual responses. I will continue to do my best work until a replacement 
has been found. I am confident that the department will continue to move in 
positive directions as such hardworking and dedicated staff in EE remain.

I continue to work both on campus and remotely throughout the summer. Please do 
not hesitate to reach out with any specific needs that you might have.

Thank you!
Sincerely,
Angie

Thank you, Angie, for your outstanding support of the department, our staff, 
our faculty and our students over the past two years. Your dedication, warmth 
and professionalism are all very hard to match. It has been wonderful working 
with you.

Dear all,

As you can imagine this came as a big surprise, but it is bittersweet because 
Angie is moving close to her family, which is wonderful.

Marionne is helping with posting a job ad for us, and with her support we will 
start our search and interview process soon. I will keep you posted as we make 
progress on that front. Meanwhile, Angie has kindly accepted to work remotely 
and the division will provide backup for matters that require in person 
attention.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Best,

Azita
