Bill’s Plumbing & Sanikan recently bestowed an unlikely retirement gift.

Arthur J. Estes came to work in August 2001, having been recently laid off, and since then has been running around the county pumping Sanikans and trailers.

“The only thing Art wanted for a retirement present was his very own Sanikan,” co-workers said, “and so his wish came true.”

On Oct. 31, Estes officially retired and received his very own Sanikan for his farm.

“Bill’s Plumbing would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to Art for his many years of service,” co-workers said, “for going above and beyond and for a job well done.”
