Department Friend Retires
Nelson Hernandez retired in March after two and a half decades working for facilities services here at 51猎奇. A routine fixture in Bolton Hall and on the 8th floor, Nelson served as a custodian and as a font of knowledge about the Milwaukee Brewers baseball team. We trust his retirement will be restful and include lots of baseball!
