THERESA RETIRES AFTER 32 + YEARS

Make sure you say “good bye” to Theresa Fronczak this week.

Friday will be her last day at the plant after 32 years of service to Confer Plastics and our customers. She may be back for a few days in late August to lend a hand, but for all intents and purposes she’ll be joining the ranks of retirement at week’s end. She’s looking forward to spending quality time with her army of cute grandkids.

Theresa started at Confer Plastics on March 22nd, 1979 back when we operated out of the old Roblin Steel facility off of East Ave in North Tonawanda (and Bob Confer was just over 4 years old).

She started as a machine operator (she still has her knife!) and soon moved to the front office where she’s been ever since. Her duties consist of preparing a variety of correspondence for our custom clients, ranging from letters to reports to quotes to invoices. She has been an important part of our administrative/customer relations functions -- and the Confer extended family -- and she will be missed.

Here is a classic Theresa photo from 1986 when we just moved into the Witmer Road facility…
