Suzie Brunswick is and has been an operating-room nurse at Brattleboro Memorial Hospital since 1976 - 47 years and 9 months to be exact.

  Kevin Waters is a driver for Ruggiero Trash Removal in Bellows Falls.  Right around 9:30 every Wednesday he pulls his truck onto our dirt road in Westminster West where fifteen or so families have lined up our trash and recycling bins. He and his assistant then empty our row of eighteen or so trash cans, those of our neighborhood here on Old Codding Road. 

 Dan Deitz lives in his own home on a dirt road in Westminster West. So do his mother and four (of eight) siblings, each with his or her own home and three acres of land purchased in the early 60’s by their parents to start a new life in Vermont, having left Bridgeport, Connecticut. 

 If you own a snowblower, a chain saw, a string trimmer or any number of other small machines to keep your place up, chances are you know Kurt Jillson. He’s the bushy-bearded red-headed guy in a baseball cap who is always up, always cheery, always working in the basement at Brown and Roberts Hardware Store on Main Street in Brattleboro.

Celine Merrim lives near Brattleboro, but she is ON THE ROAD bigtime. She has been a driver in SE Vermont for people in need since 1990 – that’s 33 years. First she drove bus for The Council on Aging in Brattleboro. Then she moved over for a few years to the related SE VT Community Action organization centered in Westminster to transport people in need of support.  That job morphed into working with The Town and Village Bus in Westminster that in turn morphed into The Current Busline that, in 2005 joined a second busline to form MOOVER.
