A couple of days ago I saw that Dr. Jack Hagarty has recently retired from the Board of Directors. After a full and successful career with SC Johnson, he gave over 20 years of his (first) retirement period to Pacific Sands and was probably directly involved in just about every formulation for every product they sold in that time.
In the context of environmentally safe product development, he was a scientific colossus and respected throughout the industry. Further he was always a loyal, dedicated and essentially decent professional.
I do not recall ever having seen an unflattering comment on Jack on this board (unlike for other leadership personnel past and present). So, on behalf of all shareholders, I would like to say:
1. Thank you, Jack, for your service to Pacific Sands
2. I wish you a long and happy (second) retirement
One of these days, when I visit the company, I hope to see your picture prominently displayed in the lobby!
