Celebrating Chris Bradley and More Than 20 Wonderful Years!

After more than 20 years with the company, we’re excited to celebrate Chris Bradley as she heads into retirement! Throughout her career, Chris has worn many hats, most notably through her work with FLP. Her dedication and contributions have made a lasting impact, and we’re incredibly grateful for all she has brought to the Florida Division.

Anyone who knows Chris knows she brings fun and positivity wherever she goes. Whether she’s singing, dancing, laughing, or simply sharing her happy spirit, she has a way of making the workday a little brighter. She’ll certainly be missed, but we couldn’t be happier for her as she begins this exciting new chapter.

Chris, congratulations on your retirement and thank you for everything you have done for the Florida Division over the past 22 years. We hope retirement gives you plenty of time to relax, have fun, and, of course, keep singing and dancing!
