Savio Celebration
Bill Hildenbrand Retires

It is with mixed emotions that the Savio Board of Trustees announces the retirement of Executive Director, William Hildenbrand. His last day will beJune 30, 2016. Bill’s service of 37 years has been the invaluable foundation to the growth and success of Savio’s services provided to Front Range communities.

An immediate search will be implemented to find a replacement in a timely manner allowing for a seamless transition. Savio’s tenured Leadership Team will continue under Bill’s guidance and direction providing for no interruption in services.

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we wish Bill the very best of joy and fulfillment in this next phase of his life.

President Ron Abo and the Board of Trustees
