Letter From Your Editor: Goodbye and Thank You
It's been a pleasure to share your stories on "the Patch" for the past few years, but now it's time for me to quote the old cowboy tune and say: "Happy trails to you, until we meet again."
Dear readers,
I am writing to let you know my last day with Patch.com will be Tuesday, Oct. 15.
The date will mark nearly three years since the site launched and it's amazing to see the virtual community gathering place we've created together! Huntington Woods-Berkley Patch will continue to serve as a place where you can blog, post events or announce news from around the neighborhood. A Patch team member who will be available to answer your questions and promote your posts soon will be introduced on the site.
Before I ride off into the sunset, however, I'd like to share a few reflections on my time as your editor.
While there have been emotionally challenging stories to report – including a murder case in Berkley and the closure of Our Lady of La Salette Catholic School and Academy – there also have been many bright spots. I have been continually impressed by how civil and well run the cities are and how dedicated the residents are to volunteering and making positive changes. It is truly inspiring.
Thank you for welcoming me with open arms and allowing me to share your stories on "the Patch." It has been a joy and an honor!
All the best,
Leslie Ellis
