I am sad to announce that after almost 10 years as a moderator on British Expats Rete is retiring her moderator boots, and hanging up her moderator hat.
I hope you will all join me in recognizing, and thanking Rete, for the time she has given the members of BE. She has helped many, many, many of you over the years by sharing her experiences, and has answered endless questions from expats new to the USA.
We will miss her in our moderator ranks, but I am happy to say she's promised not to leave us entirely and will still be popping by. BE is in her blood now, and once bitten it's hard to break that BE addiction
So to a girl in a million, thank you so much for all you've done for BE, it's members and moderators.

You have done a great job Rete, often going above and beyond the call of duty. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Sorry your not going to be working with us any more- but you more than deserve your retirement! I think its known as time off for good behaviour

If it wasn't for you guys, this forum wouldn't be the success that it is so thank you so much for the time, advice and help that you've put in over the years, but glad to see you're still going to be around. Enjoy your retirement and thank you again

Rete, thanks for everything you have done. I remember you were one of the people who sorted me out, when part of the forum was also on usenet, and it was a great help.
Glad you are not going to be a stranger.

The newcomers will miss your expertise, Rete -- and I will miss threads that let me reminiscence with you about my days in the Bronx! Thank you and all the very best.

Hi Rete. Thanks for all your hard work over the years. I've learnt a lot from you and appreciated the advice you've given to me and others here on BE. Have a nice mod retirement!
