PUTNAM — Simone Fournier of Putnam has been selected by the Connecticut Funeral Directors Association (CFDA) to receive 2017 college scholarship funds. 

Fournier, a new graduate of Marianapolis Preparatory School in Thompson, will pursue a career in geriatrics at UConn in the fall. CFDA presented $500 to each of eight Connecticut student honorees.

 This is the seventeenth consecutive year that the Connecticut Funeral Directors Association has awarded college scholarship funds to help young people pursue careers in the “helping” professions. 

This includes the fields of caregiving, counseling, social services, psychology, psychiatry, nursing, medicine, social work, gerontology, or funeral service. One student in each of Connecticut’s eight counties was selected to receive $500 in funds for college.

 

DAYVILLE — Tina MacLeod from Woodstock was named Westview Health Care Center’s Employee of the Month for June 2017.  

She works in the Support Services Department at the facility and has been employed at Westview since September 2015. “Westview has always been like a big family to me,” MacLeod said. In her spare time, she enjoys spending quality time with her family including her husband of 19 years, Shawn, her daughters Lynda and Ashley (who both work beside her at Westview) and her son, Connor.  She also enjoys cooking and baking. “Tina’s invaluable services and compassionate approach to the residents, patients and staff here at Westview are just a couple of reasons why she has been recognized for this award,” said David T. Panteleakos, administrator. “We wish to acknowledge her for the pride and commitment that she continually puts into her work and are grateful to have her on our wonderful team of caregivers.”
