COUNT DOWN TO RETIREMENT ....

[Jason Edge]

Posted this on my Facebook page today and thought I would share with all of you:

COUNT DOWN TO RETIREMENT ....
After 24 years with the state, and moving up to IT Manager over North Carolina's main Integrated Tax Processing System I will be stepping away to pursue other passions on Jan 1, 2015, just 6 days after I turn ...50. A bit scary but looking forward to another major chapter in my life! I would have never thought at age 20 or 30 I would be looking forward to turning 50, but with my Miss Cheryl by my side, I am ready to "move on....and get it on!"
 

At the end of the year I will take a bit of a break and come back full throttle with our Chapter, this website and expanding my Classic Cadillac Parts business and will dive more into the restoration services end of things.  With a full time job I've had to stick to selling parts on the side, and tinkering with my own 64 CDV as time permits but that will change next year and look forward to growing my involvement with the CLC, this chapter, and growing my side business.  For the chapter, my main goal is to complete the 1963/64 Cadillac Authenticity Manual by end of next year.  I also look forward to being able to free up and meet many of our website and chapter members in the years to come. 
Jason.

Sounds like a Chapter Member in the making! I know she enjoys riding in your 63 Caddy. Yeah, I want to pursue some things, mostly Cadillac related but will keep my option's open for some future part time IT work on my terms.

Congratulations Jason on your upcoming retirement.  I am 53, been at the same job for 33 years, owned it for 25, and was planning on retiring at 55.  God had other plans for us though when our beautiful 4 year old granddaughter came to live with us two years ago. Little boogers are sure expensive to raise today, but wouldnt have it any other way:)  Besides I am turning her into a huge Cadillac fan!

Thanks Tony and Tony! I am really looking forward to pushing our website to the next level and making it the most powerful, user friendly car club website anywhere! I believe in continuous improvement, and having an IT background, hope to use my free time to continue to improve on the great site we already have!
