R.I.P CHIP

t is with a heavy heart that I announce that our beloved friend and servant CHIP (Common House Intrepid Printer) has shuffled off the mortal coil of toil and turmoil, that is the common lot of the public printer. CHIP churned out bank statements, financial reports, reimbursement forms, and more without complaint. Wine labels, Consensus Cards, any number of full color flyers and brochures, web pages, emails all were delivered faultlessly from his trusty paper tray.

It’s the end of a printer error at Cascadia, so join me in a toast to CHIP. 🍷
