Ruth Calliott Nowakowski will be retiring at the end of the year after working for TeamCentric Technologies since it's inception in 1982 as Chek-Tech, Inc. Prior to that Ruth worked at Ralston Purina beginning in 1966. Her contribution and dedication to the customers and employees of TeamCentric have been the foundation to our success. We can hardly imagine what it will be like without her, but know her professional example and keen attention to detail are the standard we will continue to follow.
There are not words to express how dear Ruth is to all of us and how much we appreciate all she has done over the years. In retirement she has plans to take on remodeling projects and to travel. We know the level of energy she will devote to these new endeavors and we wish her the very best as she takes time to relax and enjoy life.
Thank you, Ruth. You are one in a million.

Thank you so much!!" - Betsy Hildebrand
"Ruth has always been the face of Teamcentric for me. It's true literally; whenever I picture Teamcentric I see Ruth's happy floating face. It is really hard for me to imagine the company and the office without her. Ruth, you will be missed!" - Darcy Reed
"Ruth is a great role model for a # 1 employee. Dependable. Friendly. Knowledgeable. Helpful. I haven't worked directly with Ruth but having been around here in the LSi-TeamCentric environment has given me the opportunity to witness and occasionally experience her talents, qualities, and pleasant mannerisms."
"I would think she will enjoy retirement. This, I think , is another example of her self confidence. We will miss her and her help with all the tasks she oversees. And, of course, wish her all the very best in retirement (and/or her new life after LSi-Team Centric). " - Jon Woodrum
