61 Years' Service
Thank you to Danny Callaghan
for sending me a copy of the retirement scroll awarded to his father when
he officially retired from St Cuthbert's Co-operative Association in 1973.
Danny
added that his father worked for the co-op for a total of
61 years (including war service). He worked:
-
from the age of 14 in 1922 until his
official retirement at age 65 in 1973
- then continued as
part-time janitor until about the age of 75 in 1983.
Danny gives a fuller account of
his father's service in
Recollections 1 on this St Cuthberts Recollections page.
