Ey swayel mekw’ewat,

It is with deep appreciation and gratitude that we announce today as Darcy Paul’s last day with Qwi:qwelstom. He will be on annual leave for the next two weeks.

Darcy has been an invaluable member of Sto:lo Health for nearly a decade, and his contributions have had a profound impact on our work and community. We are excited for his new role as Chief of Skowkale and are confident he will continue to thrive and lead with the same dedication and passion he has demonstrated here.

Working alongside Darcy has been an incredible journey. His guidance and wisdom have enriched us all, and we will continue to carry the lessons he imparted, particularly in how we strive to "call down the eagles" in our work and in our lives.

Though he will be in a new role, we know our paths will cross again, as he is not far away.

Thank you, Darcy, for your tireless support and for helping us grow both professionally and spiritually as a team. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors
