The INN bids a fond farewell to Deokie Santo after 20 years of service.<\/em><\/p>

If you have visited The INN\u2019s main office, Mary Brennan INN soup kitchen or most recently the Center for Transformative Change (CTC) in the last 20 years, it\u2019s likely you have been greeted by the big smile and warm demeanor belonging to Deokie Santo. Since 2004, Deokie has served as The INN\u2019s longest-running administrative assistant in a variety of locations and recently decided it was finally time to retire. Although everyone at The INN is sad to see her go, we are thrilled to know that Deokie plans to spend more precious time with her grown son and daughter and three grandchildren. She also has plans to become an INN volunteer in her spare time! On her last day in the office, INN staff members gathered at the CTC for a special farewell get-together to see Deokie off, sharing their favorite stories and best wishes for a happy, healthy and enjoyable retirement. Deokie was excited for what\u2019s to come but will also miss her work \u201cfamily\u201d at The INN. On behalf of all of the staff, board members and volunteers at The INN, we would like to publicly wish Deokie all the best in this next phase in life and let her know that she has left an INN<\/em>delible mark on this organization and everyone who has crossed her path.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
