FAREWELL MR. WALLIN

Upon his retirement, Wednesday, August 28, 1996

 

Hey! Win Wallin - It just doesn’t seem fair

For there to be a Medtronic - And not have you there

I know you have a quip - That’ll be funny when heard

That’s part of your charm - You can rest assured!

 

You’re an inspiration to us all - That luck will surely find

The man working hard and laughing - Is not just one of a kind

At six feet five - You’re a big, burly guy

Till you lay out your humor - With a grin thats so sly!

 

It’s really quite sad - That you have to go

What you’d do in ten more years - We’ll never know

We also salute you - For being a regular guy

The stories of your fairness - Always bring out a sigh!

 

Maybe there lies the diamond - We’re all searching for

Why you’re such a champion - At achieving so much more

No one’s excluded - When there’s a decision to be made

And the results you achieve - Would make others afraid!

 

Your reputation for empathy - Are countless to name

A mistake must be forgiven - That’s all part of the game

You had no medical training - Or engineering school

Nor any technical training - And you certainly were no fool!

 

But you could listen to a problem - And absorb so much detail

And determine what was essential - And solve it without fail

And knowing you’ve been blessed - You never failed to share

You’ve funded many scholarships - Showing you really care!

 

Though I hate to say it - So long my grain trading friend

You and Maxine have earned a respite - Our love with you we send

But we’re sure it won’t be long - Until someone yells, "Hey Win"!

My friend and his company are in trouble - Can you go, and help him?
