Nominated by: Ann St. Francis

“My grandmother is the image of selflessness. There isn’t a life she has touched that wasn’t made better because of it. She’s an angel.” – Courtney Bourgeois

Ann St. Francis has been helping people in professional and volunteer capacities for decades. She served as a Licensed Nursing Assistant at Saint Albans Health and Rehab for 44 years, for which she was once named Vermont State LNA. Outside of work, she cared for her husband through his 11-year struggle with cancer. In retirement, her time is still spent supporting her community through volunteering at the Abenaki afterschool program Circle of Courage, the Nativity parish food shelf and providing home care for an elderly gentleman a few days a week. Everybody in her community has something nice to say about Ann St. Francis, who has touched countless lives through her many years of service.
