District Nurse Esther Villinger Receives Citizens Valor Award
District Nurse, Esther Villinger was recognized at the City of Heath Council Meeting on November 6th by Fire Chief McCord and Mayor Johns for her heroic act in helping a Heath Citizen. On September 27th Esther saw smoke coming from an apartment. Esther helped the occupant, an elderly citizen, out of the apartment and to Esther's car where she was safe. She then informed the neighboring apartment occupants before the Heath Fire Department arrived on the scene.
For this brave and selfless act, Esther was awarded the Citizens Valor Award by Mayor Johns and Chief McCord. We are so proud of Esther and feel very fortunate to have her as a member of the Heath City Schools team. In the words of Mayor Johns “she is an extraordinary citizen”.
