On Friday, December 17, the Human Resources Department celebrated the retirements of two of their long-time employees, Jacinto Acebal and Cary Riusech.

District Hispanic Programs Specialist Jacinto Acebal was awarded his 45 year service award. Better known as "Ace" to co-workers and friend, he has combined Military and Postal Service years , dating back to 1965. Ace was a highly-decorated veteran of the Viet Nam War. In fact, he is the most decorated Cuban American serving in Viet Nam. After leaving the service, Ace was hired by the US Post Office in 1968, where he has worked ever since. As Hispanic Programs Specialist, Ace has worked closely with the Cuban community in the South Florida District, along with local politicians, to address issues and generate revenue for the Postal Service.

Cary Riusech was presented her retirement certificate also at the celebration luncheon. Cary began her career in 1979 and has served as a postal employee over 31 years. She worked for many years in the Personnel Department. Just recently, she worked for the Miami P&DC, then returned on detail to the Labor Relations Office to end her career.

Please join the Human Resources Department in congratulating both Cary and Ace for their admirable and dedicated years of service and wish them both a long and happy retirement.
