After more than 30 years in the insurance industry and 5 wonderful years with PetleyHare, our Customer Success Advocate, Debbie McCulligh, is officially retiring!
 
Debbie has been an instrumental part of the PetleyHare team, bringing decades of experience, dedication and genuine care to everything she does. Over the past five years, she has made a lasting impact on our team and the many clients she’s helped along the way.
 
While we’re certainly going to miss seeing Debbie around the office, we couldn’t be happier for her as she begins this well-earned next chapter.
 
Please join us in thanking Debbie for everything she has contributed to PetleyHare and wishing her a very happy retirement! 🥂🎉
 
We’ll miss you, Debbie! 💜
