Ann Miller, a beloved member of the Pottawatomie County community in Kansas, passed away during a tornado that struck Westmoreland on April 30. In honor of her memory and contributions to the community, the Pottawatomie County Health Department will be closed next Tuesday.
The closure is an opportunity for Health Department staff to attend Ann Miller’s funeral services and mourn the loss of their colleague and friend. The Health Department staff will take the day off to pay their respects and remember Miller as the welcoming face of the department for 28 years.
Ann Miller had a significant impact on the Pottawatomie County community, and this was evident by the outpouring of support and condolences from residents and officials. An obituary for Miller is available for those who wish to pay their respects and learn more about her life.
During the closure, the Health Department will not be offering any services or appointments. Normal operations are expected to resume on Wednesday, May 15. The community is encouraged to join in honoring Miller’s memory and offering their support to her loved ones during this difficult time.
Miller was known for her kindness, compassion, and dedication to improving public health in Pottawatomie County. She worked tirelessly to provide essential services such as immunizations, vaccinations, disease prevention education, and health screenings. Her efforts helped improve health outcomes for countless individuals in the county.
As a result of her hard work and commitment, Ann Miller became a respected member of the community who was always willing to lend a helping hand when needed. She touched many lives during her time with us, including those within the Health Department staff.
In closing, we hope that everyone takes this opportunity to reflect on Ann Miller’s life and contributions to our community. We also encourage everyone to come together next Tuesday at one o’clock PM at St Mary’s Catholic Church in Westmoreland as we lay her remains to rest with dignity.
Thank you all for your understanding during this time of closure.
Sincerely,
The Pottawatomie County Health Department Staff
