ESTRADA ENTERPRISES PRESS RELEASE

January 22
Dublin, Ireland

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Estrada Enterprises announced yesterday that its Chief Operating Officer (COO) Loretta Pope will be retiring after nearly twenty-five years with the company. Her last day in her position will be this Friday, January 25. Taking over her duties will be Luke Vella, who currently serves as the senior vice president of operations. In a couple of days he will travel from his office in Dublin to the company’s headquarters in Auckland to meet Loretta Pope and the CEO Pauline Wallen.

Although Vella is originally from Glasgow, the largest city in Scotland, he relocated to Dublin, Ireland, 15 years ago after leaving a position at Saginaw Industries. He is highly regarded among his colleagues, and while working in his current position, he has overseen the development of many of the most successful products at Estrada Enterprises.

Hi Luke!

I was so surprised this morning when I read your company’s press release. Congratulations on your promotion! I’m sure you are quite excited about the new opportunity and there’s no doubt that you’ll do a great job.

It’s hard to believe that only fifteen years ago we were working together in Scotland, and now we’ve both ended up in New Zealand. It’s amazing how things change!

I wanted to invite you to get together while you are in Auckland this week. It’s been a long time since we were in the same place. I would love to congratulate you in person if you have some free time while you are here. The only times that I have to meet up with you this week are either Thursday afternoon for lunch or Friday evening for dinner.

I’m looking forward to catching up with you.

Eden
