FOR EMERGENCIES - FIRE/POLICE/AMBULANCE: 911 76 Acton/Georgetown, Friday, June 27, 2008 5 After a recent investiture ceremony at Queens Park, Georgetowns Agnes Daniell can now be addressed as Dame Agnes. The longtime resident was recently invested with the title Dame of Grace in the Order of St. John, by Ontarios Lt.-Gov. David Onley. It was quite a ceremony, said Daniell, And I felt very privileged to have the honour bestowed on me. Daniell should feel honoured only four others in Canada were bestowed with the same honour. Becoming a Dame is the female equivalent to being knighted. Daniell was nominated for the honour by the St. John Ambulance organi- zation, as a recognition of her 45 years of vol- unteering with the organization. I started volunteering with St John after I graduated from high school, said Daniell, and I just kept volunteering all those years, and loved doing it. Being a registered nurse (RN) was also a help, and though Daniell has worked as a full- time RN at Credit Valley Hospital since 1986, she has retired from full-time nursing, but still works the occasional shift at the hospital. On top of her volunteer work with St John Ambulance, she has also been an aide-de-camp for Ontarios lieutenant-governor for the past 16 years, which is also a volunteer position. During that 16 years, Daniell has worked with four lieutenant-governors. She started with Henry Jackman, followed by Hilary Weston, James Bartleman and now Onley. An aide-de-camps responsibility is to walk through the venue prior to an event, and make sure its safe and that protocol and all things are in order, said Daniell, During the actual event, we must also make sure that the lieu- tenant-governor is looked after and take care of his needs. With His Honour (Onley) requir- ing a scooter to move about, the aide-de-camp must also make sure any handicap ramps are the proper ones, to ensure his safety. Being named Dame Agnes is one of a long line of honours Daniell has received through her volunteer work with St. John Ambulance, and the lieutenant-governors office. In June 2002, she accepted the three-year term as Provincial Commissioner for St. John Ambulance the top person in the organiza- tion completing that term three years ago. And though she has been through the ranks of St. John Ambulance, she still takes her turn volunteering to oversee local events, like the recent Classics Against Cancer car show in Georgetown, to make sure that first aid is available on-site for those who have attended the event. There is such a satisfaction for me, seeing that look on someones face after Ive treated then, said Daniell. It was that feeling of satis- faction that got me started, and has kept me volunteering all these years. With the investiture of the title of Dame added to her former title of aide-de-camp and her registered nurse title, Daniells signature has grown dramatically in length. When she takes pen in hand, Dame Agnes full title is now Agnes Daniell, DstJ, AdeC, RN. But Daniell is quick to add one thing. To all my friends, she grins, Im still just Agnes.
