A reader reached out to me to ask me to share the news about the a popular, longtime Town employee who is about to retire.
On December 2nd, Bridget Gilleny will retire after 35 years working for Southborough. She started back in 1989 as the Superintendent of Cemeteries. Since then she has worked at the Transfer Station, and most recently in the DPW office.
You can read more about Gilleney from a post I wrote last year after Southborough Rotary named her one of their two honorees last year for service to Southborough.
Updated (12/27/24 5:33 pm): My apologies for the big typo in the story and even bigger one in the headline! (Her last name, as I wrote in the story, is Gilleney. And I initially wrote 25 instead of the 35 years that she has worked for the Town.)
