Long Serving Employee Retires

19 August 2013

Brian Blades, last week, concluded his 28 years’ service as a bathroom fitter for the Passmore Group to enjoy a well-deserved retirement. Brian was an excellent fitter and had a huge impact on every customer who was lucky enough to have him carry out work on their homes, many of which claiming he “started as a stranger and left a friend” as well as reiterating to us that he was “a credit to the business and trade”.

Tony Passmore, company director, makes comment on his retirement: “Brian is one of the old school - his ability to do absolutely anything to the highest of standards was second to none - his legacy is that our other bathroom fitters looked up to him as a mentor, and all have learned a great deal from him - such loyalty is a rare thing these days and he'll be sorely missed.”

From everyone here at Passmore we would like to wish Brian a very happy retirement.
