Retirement Reception Honors Rynn Toifel


The University of South Alabama recently hosted a retirement reception honoring Rynn Toifel, secretary in the USA Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The reception was held on May 28, 2014, at USA Children's & Women's Hospital.

Toifel is retiring after more than 30 years of service to the University and the USA Physicians Group.

Toifel came to USA in 1976, working in the radiation safety office at the USA College of Medicine. She then moved to the radiology department at USA Medical Center, eventually becoming secretary to the department chair. From there, she served as a secretary in the orthopaedics department. In 1992, Toifel began working in the obstetrics and gynecology department, where she served until her retirement.

"Rynn is an individual that sincerely cares about all of her coworkers and would do anything that was asked of her," said Danny Rickert, practice director for the USA Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. "She always put that extra effort into being not just a coworker, but also a friend to everyone in the department. She will be missed, but we wish her well in her retirement."
