WELL KNOWN Wexford man, John Fowler has finally 'hung up' on his job of 31 years.
For John worked on the switch at Wexford General Hospital for over three decades, and has finally decided to retire.
His work pals turned out in force on Saturday night to toast his good health at a retirement party in Whitford House.
