That's not nice.

What's not nice about it,wasn't intended to be 'not nice'. Just a reminder of another anniversary. I've talked to him many times as he walked the park. 5 years is a long times,seems like just yesterday that a new CEO came in.

Because if it was "Just a reminder of another anniversary" it would have been the 5th Anniversary of Matt Ouimet taking over.

Or of Dick Kinzel's RETIREMENT, not of his BEING GONE!!!!! (Caps and exclamation points yours.)

This Isn't A Hospital--It's An Insane Asylum!

Is that because the park still has that same crappy, crappy food?
