The Dover First UMC family congratulates Cathy Bond on her well-deserved retirement after 33 years as a dedicated teacher. Enjoy every moment of this exciting new chapter for you and your family.

We are excited to celebrate another incredible retiree from Dover City Schools! ❀️

Catherine β€œCathy” Bond, fourth-grade ELA and science teacher, has dedicated 33 years to education. As she begins retirement, Cathy is looking forward to traveling more with her husband, who recently retired as well, and spending more time visiting family out of state without the limitations of a school calendar. She is also excited to finally dive into the many books waiting patiently to be read!

Her parting advice to future educators? Go beyond the classroom. Get involved, speak up for your profession, and always advocate for your students.

Thank you, Cathy, for your years of service, care, and unwavering commitment to students. We wish you all the best in retirement! πŸ‘

William Swihart our brother in Christ has gone home to his Heavenly Father. Bill's love for Jesus, his family, tractors and farming were always so easy to see. He was a long-time and faithful member of the Dover First UMC family and enjoyed serving in any way that he could, especially with the United Methodist Men. Please pray for God's peace and comfort for Bill's family during this very difficult time.

View William "Bill" Swihart's obituary, contribute to their memorial, see their funeral service details, and more.
