Pasco County Tax Collector Mike Fasano announces the retirement of longtime employee Louise Larsen, a beloved friend of many at the New Port Richey office located in the West Pasco Government Center. Louise greeted everyone with a smile on her face and a touch of gentleness and humor that was uniquely her own.
“Louise is always upbeat and positive in all she does,” New Port Richey Office Manager Clare Casey states. “She has one of those great smiles that will be missed by both co-workers and customers. We appreciate all she has done while she was employed with us. She will be missed.”
“Louise represents all that we strive for in our customer service representatives,” Tax Collector Mike Fasano comments. “She is a model of kindness, compassion and efficiency. Her many years of dedicated service to this organization will be missed. I know I speak for all members of the Tax Collector’s Office when I say we all wish her and her husband the very best as she enters this new period in her life.”
