Judge Frederick Harap Retires

Administrative law judge Fred Harap has retired. Judge Harap has been a fixture at the Manchester, New Hampshire Social Security hearing office for many, many years. He will certainly be missed.

There is no word yet whether Judge Harap will remain in New Hampshire in retirement, or move to Hawaii, where his son lives. As I look outside this January morning at several feet of snow and a thermometer at 20 degrees, my vote is for Hawaii.
