Dear colleagues -

It is with certain sadness to announce that Steve Fisher has resigned his position with the IGS Central Bureau. Steve brought a depth of talent and experience to the CB and the
IGS during his too brief stay of nearly two years. We will certainly miss him!

Steve has always been professional and insightful when it comes to dealing with IGS, and at times complex issues and situations. We here at JPL, and I know many of you in the IGS
community, really enjoy working with him. He is a quick wit with a creative mind that is always coming up with new ideas, his great sense of humor keeps the working relationships
enjoyable, and during our travels to many places, Steve is a great ambassador for the IGS.  He did a great job in supporting the establishment of the IGS Infrastructure Committee
and it will be difficult to replace him.

We are fortunate that, although departing his full time IGS position, we have arranged to retain him on staff on an as needed basis, and depending on what time he might have
available as he pursues a new endeavor.

Please join me in wishing Steve all the best in his new position, and I am certain that he will always have connections to the IGS and our wonderful community.

sincerely,

Ruth
