[CentOS] Cron - log when job ends?

Hello, In trying to resolve a problem with a cron job, we can see when the job starts by looking in the /var/log/cron log file. However, I was asked if when the job ends could also be logged. (It seems to be something that crops up every so often over the years.) I found on the 'net this article
