This one sound like it comes from someone who has been doing something difficult, but that it needed doing for sixteen years, and he/she is now finished with that task.
The sixteen part makes me think of elected officials with even numbered terms. It can't be a president because FDR died before his sixteenth year in the White house; senators have six year terms, that won't do, uneven for sixteen; representatives in Congress often have many two year terms, that'll work; on the state level, governors have terms that could add up to sixteen, depending upon the state in which they serve.
Hmm. Am I close?
