Welcome

Welcome to DC TimeWatchers! Thanks so much for being part of our lives. Please check out our photo album from Brevard CI. We have lots of early pictures and people who made it happen. Hey look close you may be one of them!   Our goal here is to provide a fun and refreshing page to visit and become a part of. This is your page and we hope that it will reflect the best of our abilities to entertain and grow. We hope that it is a platform for fellowship and support of one another in our post work years. If you have photos or stories that you would like to share, please send them through our “contact us” tab on the left and we will work on getting them on the site.  Should you see an  error, misspelled name or are able to identify an unknown person, please let us know, so that we can correct it.

Fall Picnic Get2Gether Great Success

Our fall GET2GETHER was held on Friday 10/10/08.  Please take a few minutes and look at the photo album of the gathering.  We had 45 in attendance, while that is a lower number than usual, it was a great time.  Our most distant traveler was George Murphy from Georgia, with a great mix of folks from all over Brevard County and a great mix of all department’s retirees.  Medical made a great showing, with RN Marge Patt, CMT-C Willie Parlor, Sherman English (yes he was in medical before coming to security) and not forgetting Jim Johnson –who also started in Medical at Brevard and retired as AW from IRCI. Another Administrator retiree was Dave Hemme, Retired Warden.   Bill Morrell & John Shearer Sr. from Maintenance, Mike Gooch from Staff Development/Training, Manly Solovicos, Marge Grasso, Steve Russo, Kenny Terrell from education.  Security retirees included Richard Puglio, Larry Cruce, John Cummings, Doug Gillis, Keith Kiser, Tom Komon, Richard Lopresto, Larry Reed, Uwe Schwersenski, Tim Scott, Jackie Shearer, E.J. Smith, Allan Spence, Richard Ward, Deputy Bobby Johnson and guests Joan English, Carol Ward, Sharon Loneg & Onnita Reed.  

Pete Baillargeon and John Shearer II did a great job on the grill as always, and thanks to the superb organizational skills and financial arm twisting of Lori Girard and Linda Patricks we got everyone logged in those participating in our 50/50 draw along with tons of Retiree Door Prizes. Other still working staff and supporters of our Retiree Group, whom we love to see included, Captain Bernie Elvin, Captain Robert Wilson, Lieutenant Don Tapper-Charlotte CI,  Senior Sgt. Amos Lewis,  Sgt. Tom Burke,  Sgt. Maria Komon, Lieutenant Chuck Mulligan.

If you are still working and are interested in helping out our group in our functions or wish to join us for an activity, please just email and let us know and we will add you to our email list and keep you up to date on happenings of the DC TimeWatchers.

One of the reasons our retiree group enjoys success is the still working folks, who come out and volunteer to help us put our functions on every time we gather

Since 2003, many of you schedule time off, plan on your regular days off or just squeeze us in during your lunch hour to help us out any way you can in supporting our GET2GETHERS.  Many of you contribute generously of your time, money or resources for our gatherings. There are over 40 of you who have directly helped us maintain our relationships with our employee family over the last Five (5) Years!!! We deeply appreciate all that you have done without special notice or exceptional recognition.  There are probably twice that many folks who cover posts and work the shift to allow you to step up and support our retiree group and to those, we are also grateful. 

You know who you are and so do we……. Thank you for being there for us!!

Also, I want to express our deepest appreciation to Mr. Jorge Hoffman from Edward Jones Investments, who kindly donated 17 beautiful door prize gifts for the function.  Jorge is the financial advisor for several retirees from Brevard and is always available to consult with anyone preparing to retire or already retired. He can be reached at 639-8510. Jorge’s office is located at 3819 Murrell Road, Rockledge, Florida.  “Thanks Jorge for your generosity and support of our DC TimeWatchers”
