Thanks 656.

The ***** of this story is that I have a sense of relief that someone did his job. Is seemingly satisfied with the organization. Retires with dignity.

This is how my Daddy raised me. Grateful that I had an opportunity to contribute to something that matters. Not resentful or envious.

... behind-the-scenes guys like this is what makes an organization run, it's all about the logistics ... it's nice to see them take the time to recognize a valuable employee like this ... enjoy your retirement, Silky!

Sean Payton even evaluated him when he took over the franchise and decided he's a keeper. Thanks Silky!
