Fond farewell

J. Walter Thompson executives couldn’t simply say goodbye to Jill Rhiner with a handshake and a hug.

Instead, the Chicago shop created a billboard to bid farewell to Rhiner, who served as management director on the Blockbuster account. She worked at the agency for more than a decade.

“Sending flowers just wasn’t enough for our Jill,” the billboard reads. A caricature of Rhiner shows her carrying a yellow rose—Texas’ state flower and home to Blockbuster, where Rhiner spent a great deal of time.
