Lyn's Farewell – Happy Retirement!

December 9, 2021

“Lyn is quick to tell you that she came with the furniture,” says President Greg Fraleigh...

A luncheon was held at the Lord Byron Steak & Seafood House in Waterdown on Wednesday to celebrate Lyn Kendall’s retirement. Lyn has been a dedicated team member of The Enfield Group Inc. for just shy of 25 years, having contributed to the success of the property management team since 1997, when The Enfield Group acquired The Lounsbury Group. During her time with Enfield, she has worked with three generations of the Fraleigh family and knows the business inside and out. 

“Lyn is quick to tell you that she came with the furniture,” says President Greg Fraleigh, whose appreciation for her hard work was evident at the farewell lunch. “For me this is quite difficult … this is a family business, and she has been a part of the family since the 90s. She knows more about my company than I do!” he said in his goodbye speech. 

Lyn’s longevity with the company is testament to the wealth of knowledge she shared with her fellow employees, her vast experience in accounting, and loyal commitment to the company.

“What we’ve learned from Lyn is more than we could have learned in a textbook. Lyn has given me great guidance and insight,” expressed Officer Manager, Elaine Symington, in her goodbyes. 

Her customer service also came with distinction — to the point where it was common for clients to write in to share their appreciation: “We were given only 5 days to get the status certificate by the listing office,” wrote realtors Alison Walsh and Lou Volk in a letter to The Enfield Group office. “Instead of giving us a hard time … Lynn Kendall rose to the challenge. We would like to thank her very much for making our job that much easier. We appreciate how hard and fast she had to work to get that status certificate to us by our deadline.” 

Lyn is looking forward to spending time with her grandchildren, enjoying her garden and caring for her husband. While her retirement is an inevitable loss for The Enfield Group, the company appreciates the many devoted years she has given them. She will be very greatly missed. 

Elaine closed her farewell with a blessing: “May your troubles be less, may your blessings be more, may nothing but sunshine come through your door.”

The Enfield Group Inc. wish to advise that until further notice, all meetings (Board, Owner, Contractor) are to be held virtually without person-to-person contact. There will be no in-person meetings at the sites or at The Enfield Group office. Additionally, since the Government requirements are for all employees to work from home as much as possible, our in-office staff is kept to a minimum number of employees, and on-site hours at our properties have been halted until restrictions are lifted. The Enfield Group Inc. requires all employees to be fully vaccinated. A recently published article from Rod Escayola (Lawyer) on CondoAdviser.ca deals with the new regulations and advises the use of QR code posters at entrances to the buildings as useful screening measures for those arriving onsite. CondoAdviser.ca notes the most prominent changes below: Overview of changes • Social gathering and organized public events must be limited to: • 5 people indoors • 10 people outdoors • Indoor sports and recreational fitness amenities (ie. gyms and pools etc.) must be closed. • Indoor recreational amenities must be closed. • Short-term rentals are now limited to people in need of housing. • Employees must work remotely unless the nature of their work requires them to be on site. • The rest of the measures already in place under Step 3 continue to apply with little changes. These measures will be effective on January 5, 2022 and are expected to be in place for at least 21 days (or January 26, 2022).

On September 22, 2021, The Human Rights Commission announced their stance on mandatory vaccination and the Government of Ontario is still maintaining and requiring full mask wearing in public spaces. The Enfield Group implements both of these policies whole heartedly for the health and safety of our team and their respective families. In addition, we trust that our clients and contractors also adhere to these government policies during the fourth wave of this pandemic. As a result of the Ontario Human Rights Commission declaration regarding mandatory vaccinations and the Government of Ontario masking policy, The Enfield Group and its entire team and affiliates observe the requirements in support of these policies.
