Time for another goodbye . . .  and some words to carry on

Another Friday and another person leaving The Seattle Times. This one was especially close to me, and not posting what Kathy Triesch Saul had to say here would probably make home life very difficult. Especially since her retirement means she will be home more and I happen to live in that home, too.

Kathy worked at The Seattle Times for 38 years, filling more jobs than I ever did there: copy editor, slot person, assistant city editor, politics editor, investigative team editor, food writer, magazine editor. I probably missed a few, but this gives you an idea of what a talented person she is.

It's been great fun and an honor to work in a newspaper newsroom for so many years, and Kathy expresses her gratitude from top to bottom. Then she reminds journalists to use their time wisely: Think more, worry less.

All this on Halloween, no less.
