End of an era

Phil Baker in his Doosan Solar75 on site at Brue Farm Highbridge

Phil Baker has finally decided to throw away his safety boots and don his gardening wellies and is looking forward to a well earned retirement. He initially joined L A Moore Ltd in 1966, had a few breaks working elsewhere, and rejoined in 1974, some 45 years of loyal service.

The Baker family have been part of the L A Moore Ltd family since 1963 – 56 years – Mike, Rob, Phil, Alec, and Darren. Even their relations have joined us for some periods; Dennis Blinman, Mike Durston and now Paul, who is the partner of Rob’s daughter. Adding all their service together, the Baker family has worked a total of 203 years for L A Moore Ltd, which is quite a feat!

Phil is a much loved part of the company and will undoubtedly be missed and we would all like to wish him well and have a few more “lie in’s”.

Watch this space with regards a get together later in the year….
