Educational Assistant Ruthann McKie says her commitment to social service work is a family tradition. McKie says both her mother and grandmother gave tirelessly of themselves to help enrich the lives of others.
Grandmother provided tea and empathy along with an open door policy for anyone who needed an ear to listen. Her mother dedicated many years to her patients in long-term care and at the hospital. Ruthann believes a similar devotion to others’ interests was her destiny- and it started early. Although her career in Education has been punctuated with a break in service, she’s been continuous as an Educational Assistant at Arnprior District High School for twenty-three years, preceded by a career with Community Living, beginning at the former McLaughlan House in Arnprior right after college.
