Who was the last original DL CM to retire?

[Towncrier]

This castmember was working at Disneyland when it opened in 1955. He originally intended to work at DL as a summer job, but ended up working there for 42 years.

Not me. I haven't yet been a CM. And I was only about 30 days old when Disneyland opened.

Not Dick Nunnis either.

Any other guesses?

Time's up - The answer is Bob Penfield.

We were at DL the day that he retired and actually got to meet with and talk to him. Here is a link with some information about Bob and his career with Disney:

That's so cool that they gave him his own store window! It's also very fitting. Always good to hear stories like that. Thanks!
