To whom it may concern,
It has been my pleasure to work with Gary Satterwhite for the better part of the last year.
During this time, Gary has been My ears, eyes and hands. While I have generally stayed
in the office, Gary has gone to the field and introduced a new
Service for Epoch. He has been the first line of Instruction, Communication and
Troubleshooting. It has been a long tiring Job that we have asked Gary to Perform. He
has done it without Complaint and has done the Job very well .Gary practiced his trade
with his first Thought on being Safe and Seeing that those around Him were Safe. After
the Safety was in hand, he would gather Data so that we could Develop this Service and
Correct the Faults that it might have as an Artifact of being a New Product.
It is a Sad day today when Epoch chose not to extend his Contract. I will miss working
with him. I am sure that you will Find that Gary is a good employee and will Inspire
those around him to be Better.
Sincerely,
Bernie Hubbard
Project Manager
