To the Editor:

I’d like to bid farewell to one of E5’s more beloved employees: Kerry (Egan) Ryan an irreplaceable person.

Kerry will be leaving us in June after being with us for almost five years and has really made a difference within our community. With all of her refreshing enthusiasm, easy–going manner, intelligence, and overall extreme friendliness she has paved new inroads in to the hearts of those we serve. She has done this through the many programs she either participates in or organizes whether it is “sweatin’ with the seniors”, trips to Castle Island, the citizen police academy, or the other numerous activities that she feels will best serve those in need.

Kerry has done such a great job at E5 that she is being recognized with a promotion to lead the citywide effort on developing partnerships with the Boston Police Department and the citizens of Boston which she will start on June 11, 2012.

We were truly lucky to have her in E5 while she was here and we will miss her and we would to congratulate her and wish her the best of luck.

District E-5 Police Captain
