LYNCHBURG, Va. – Lynchburg’s city manager received a well-deserved goodbye after 15 years of service.
Bonnie Svcerk is retiring and on Friday, Lynchburg city staff, including police officers, firefighters and others surprised her with a retirement parade at City Stadium.
“My wish had been that I could ease out of city hall. That wasn’t in the cards and this was great. If I had to do something big in public this was perfect,” said Svcerk.
Her retirement plans are to start a yarn small business, spend more time with family and be active on three community boards.
