For Jean's retirement  - Cheers !
Lyrics:
He’s got the key to retirement
Billed out and bound to go
Gotta leave here running 
Walking is much too slow

He was working for Mitel
But to see the world was the prize
Though the application process
Was onerous in his eyes

After 3 years he made it,
But at half his previous rate
His first Temporary Duty was 
Enough to seal his fate

Though his posting to DC
Got him out of the shop
Getting married on the roof, man
Is awfully hard to top

His thoughtful long pauses
Make you anxious thru and thru 
Is it really contemplation
Or is he about to fire you

He came in at the right time
Technology about to change
With MITNET expanding
The department wouldn’t be the same
 
He spent seven years in Paris
As team lead and RTM
Many TDs and travel
Kept him occupied until then

Instrumental to ESMAIT
You committed to see it through
Keeping two groups happy
Was not so easy to do

Upwardly mobile,
You never missed a beat
A Master’s of Leadership
Put you in the front seat

He moved on from DFAIT
As IRB’s CIO
To modernize the bureau was
The only way to go

Hey Jean, we’re gonna miss you
Neither place will be the same
But we’ll have memories and emails
And policies that bear your name

You got the key to retirement
Billed out and bound to go
Gotta leave here running, man
Cause walking is much too slow

JC Key to Retirement
