“valuable member of staff”
“I believe I speak on behalf of all councillors when I say what a genuinely nice person Trevor is. He is a valuable a member of staff and has, on many occasions, given us all a wealth of valuable and excellent advice. He is a man of principle and intengrity and has always acted with dedication and professionalism and kept us safe.. His sense of humour is second to none, as is his commitment to Wrexham Council. Both his wisdom and his wit will be missed. I would like to thank him for all his service with us and wish him a long and happy retirement.
