Congratulations on your retirement, Cindy! Thank you for all you have done for Angell Family Dentistry. We will all miss seeing you in the office.
“I am starting the next chapter of my life, RETIREMENT!
I worked for ten different dental offices in MN and CT starting as a high school student for our family dentist, Dr. Rudolphi. I knew nothing about teeth other than that I had them. I soon developed a passion for teeth that is still with me today.
After a short time working there, Dr. Rudolphi encouraged me to apply for the dental hygiene program at the U of M. Dental hygiene students started by working on each other. The first two photos were taken in Fall, 1977.
A few years later, in the photo of me wearing a lab jacket, I am wearing what was considered PPE for the time!
In December, 1996, I was asked to work as a temp hygienist for Dr. Dave Angell. I soon became an actual employee where I ended up working over half my career. Physical limitations on my part, office needs and an AMAZING dentist/owner (Dave Angell), allowed me to move into a less clinical position as Practice Manager/Treatment Plan Coordinator around 2002.
I got to manage building a new office and adding a new dentist, Steve Angell. We survived the CoVID .
Now it is time to pass my job onto the person I have wanted to for several years, Amanda. She will do a great job for Angell Family Dentistry.
I already miss my co-workers and our patients. I am grateful for all who helped me along the way. But, there are a lot of books to be read, games to be played, places to travel, time to spend with family and friends. I am ready for retirement!”
