Now at age 87, Red Lerille can still work a 12-hour day. He refuses to retire.

by Adam Daigle | Acadiana business editor​ ​ ​

Good morning, Acadiana business news readers. It's business news time. Let's dive in. 

Red Lerille is quite a unique individual, but you probably knew that before you opened this email. But did you know he exercises at 1 a.m. every night? 2 a.m. on the weekends?

You also may not have known that he celebrated his 87th birthday on Friday. But, as the worn-out phrase goes, that's just a number. He can still work an eight-hour day. Twelve if the task calls for it.

Read and find out why he will never retire. 

You can read the full story here.

Have a great day and thanks for reading.
