Marilyn, our secretary since the TCB Group was founded, recently decided to retire as of Dec 2004. As part of the standard Beckman Staff Party, there was a retirement party for her. Against tradition, the entire TCB Group attended the party, and got these shots of the event.

Food Table The meatballs were especially tasty.

TCB Mingling Our group members were excited to get some free food.
