    Farewell & Thanks
    John Healy is about to depart ESB after a mere 48 years.
    For those of us lucky enough to have worked with John there are not enough kind words to describe him.
    Legend & Gentleman are two that come to mind. John has been a foundation of knowledge on all things Metering & he has been so kind, patient & understanding to all, that have crossed his path with any query over the years.
    John will be missed by us all & his unique skill to whistle a fine tune and his wicked sense of humour will always be remembered.
    We wish John & Deirdre & Family many Happy & Healthy years as he beings the next chapter.
