After more than 20 years of dedicated service, Eileen Kopp retired on February 28, leaving behind a legacy of commitment, integrity, and steady leadership. Throughout her time as County Manager, and before as Staff Assistant, and in many other roles, she served with professionalism and genuine care for both her colleagues and the community.

Eileen’s guidance, work ethic, and quiet dedication have made a lasting difference that will not be forgotten. Her contributions have helped shape the strength and success of UK Cooperative Extension in meaningful ways.

With deep appreciation and gratitude, we congratulate Eileen on her well-earned retirement and wish her continued happiness and fulfillment in the years ahead.
