Yesterday, we had a wonderful time celebrating Amy Acosta and her incredible 39 years of service to Taylor County! If you know Amy, we HAD to have a petting zoo for her party!

Today marks Amy’s last day with our office as she begins a well-earned retirement.

Please join us in wishing Amy a heartfelt farewell and all the best as she starts this exciting new chapter.

Amy, the office won’t be the same without you. Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and the countless ways you’ve made a difference in our community over the past 39 years. We are grateful for your service and wish you many years of happiness, adventure, and relaxation in retirement!

Congratulations, Amy! Enjoy every minute. You’ve earned it!
