We’re here today to celebrate a very special occasion. I'm sure everybody
will agree with me that Tom has always been a great boss and a great leader. He
has also been a good role model and friend. I have never met a person who is as
understanding, patient, and sincere as Tom.
We have thrown this birthday party not only to celebrate your birthday, but
also to express our gratitude for your thoughtful leadership. You have really
done a lot for everyone here. So thank you from all of us.
Happy birthday, Tom, and many happy returns!
