Swingle Team Member Dan Cotter Retires After 38 Years

In February, 2012, Swingle Lawn, Tree and Landscape care bade farewell to Dan Cotter,  one of our favorite mechanics. Dan has retired after 38 years of keeping Swingle's machines and vehicles in operation.

Dan started at Swingle in 1974 making $2.50 per hour. (It went a little farther then...) Prior to Dan's service to Swingle, he served in the US Army.

Originally from Englewood, Colorado, Dan didn't stray very far from home when he took a job with Denver-based Swingle, so all Swingle team members at Dan's retirement party were thrilled to learn Dan and his wife plan to enjoy his retirement by traveling around the country in their RV. In addition to a check for $3,800--$100 for each of Dan's years with Swingle--Dan received a Good Sam Club membership and a plaque with a gold dipped wrench.

So if your summer travels involve the American roadways, please know one of ours is out there. Maybe give him a wave for us?

Congratulations and safe travels, Dan. We will miss you.
