IPM Center says farewell to staffer Liz Thomas

This spring we bid farewell to our friend and colleague Liz Graeper Thomas. A former IPM fruit consultant, Liz joined the Center in 2001 when
it was still in its infancy. Since then she has been a leader in website
and database development, IPM priority setting, and conference planning.

Above all, Liz has strengthened our connections with partners. Her knowledge of IPM, her inquisitive nature, and her personal warmth have helped so many of us to connect, whether networking at meetings or sharing
a good meal at a large table.

We are grateful for Liz's time with the Center, and we wish her all the best serving as a Town of Ulysses board member and forming other new partnerships.
