Morrison has been a
dedicated employee of the

Public Health Unit where
she has worked for the

past 19 years as a com-
munity health nurse.

‘ [ll be retiring on May .
11, said Morrison. I think:
I'd like to go overseas in,
some underdeveloped
country and work there
-for awhile. After all, who

says life has to end at re-
tirement, added Morrison.

As part of the celebra-
tion, Terrace Girl Guides
have declared the follow-
ing as ‘Citizen to’ be
Recognized’ for 1987 in
