It is with great honor to announce that our Sintering Supervisor, Bill Campbell, has announced his retirement effective June 26^th. I first met Bill when I worked with him 20 years ago with a different powdered metal company. Bill and I worked together in the past in the Quality field, and I always respected Bill’s hard work, his level of commitment at doing his best, and making sure that he was focused on what was best for the company. I lost track of Bill after 2006, as I moved to another company, but I never forgot our work together. Moving forward a few years, I embarked at starting my own company in 2011, and one day when we were preparing our new plant for operation, in walked Bill! It was a pleasure to see him again, and it didn’t take us long to bring Bill into the Clearfield family. Bill, along with his sintering skills, has been a key part in helping us build this company, and we thank him for all of his efforts, hard work, and determination. I remember early on when Bill said to me, “I can’t wait to see how this company grows over the next few years, because I know it’s going to”. With any startup, there are difficult times and challenges…and I am often reminded of his words, as it helped me to see our future potential, and it helped keep me positive and moving forward. Bill will surely be missed by all, and it will take some adjustment for us to come to work and not see Bill here doing what needs to be done each and every day. Although a difficult chapter for us as a company, I am more excited for Bill’s new chapter as he enjoys his retirement and spends more precious time with his family. We wish Bill all the best, and we sincerely thank him for not only all that he has done, but more importantly, for being a good friend and a respected member of our Clearfield family.
