Dimit retirees after 30 years

Bob Dimit, a well-known Emo resident, has officially retired from Kaemingh Fuels Ltd. after being employed with that company for over 30 years.
Bob was honoured with a retirement party Saturday evening with several people attending to share the occasion.
Now that Bob has retired his plans are to drive a bus daily. Bob and Gwen (Bob’s wife) own a bus company, and he will remain active with that.
I asked Gwen if Bob will continue to tease and be the joker he has made a reputation for being. Gwen laughed and said “probably even more so.”
Congratulations Bob on your retirement from everyone in the district!

Robin’s 2¢:
A woman invited some people to dinner. At the table she asked her six-year-old daughter, “Would you like to say the blessing?”
“I wouldn’t know what to say,” the little girl replied.
“Just say what you hear Mommy say,” her mother said.
The little girl bowed her head and said, “Dear Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?”
