It is with great pleasure that we can welcome an addition to our retirement board, Gerald "Gerry" Coughlin. Mr. Coughlin has been a resident of Plymouth for the past 40 years, and has raised his family of 4 children here in our public school system. Gerry comes to this board with a wealth of experience and knowledge in the public retirement community.
Mr. Coughlin is a retiree of the Mass. Turnpike Authority Employee's Retirement System, where he was the director of that system from 1978 to 1996. After retiring, Gerry served as an elected board member from 2001 to 2009. His knowledge of Chapter 32 and the implementation of its laws will be instrumental in ensuring that the Plymouth Retirement System continues on the path of excellence. Because there will be no "training period", with his addition, we as a board are confident that the Town of Plymouth Retirement System will continue to perform at its best for its membership and fund.
Gerry also serves as treasurer for the Retired State, County and Municipal Employees Association of Massachusetts. During his years with the Turnpike Retirement System he was active in the Mass Association of Contributory Retirement Systems, which represents and provides educational services for all 106 Massachusetts public retirement boards.
"Gerry Coughlin will be an outstanding addition to our board," said Chairman Tom Kelley. "His many years of experience are a real asset to our members."
