As most of you know, I’m off to college, beginning a new step in my life.  I will miss the library the most when I leave (well after my parents and friends of course).  The library has left a definite mark on me, and is something I will never forget.  It was more than just a job to me, it was a place where I could help people and see the little ones grow.  Libraries will always have a special place in my heart and the Tekamah Carnegie Public library will always be at the top.   And I have all the library staff and patrons to thank for making this experience so special.  And thank you all for coming to “tea and crumpets” on my last day, that truly meant a lot. I know Tsehaynesh will do an outstanding job working there and I hope that she can have the same great experiences I had there.  And hopefully the Gremlins won’t make her crazy!   Thank you again!!! I will miss you all SO much!!     Love, Kaylee
