Police Service Board. Moreover, Rose enjoys immersing herself in local volunteer service. “My husband’s family are all military, and when he retired, we both decided to join the Legion.” Rose is on the St. Thomas Legion Lord Elgin Br. #41 Royal Canadian Legion Executive, in addition to being a member of the St. Thomas Seniors’ Recreation Centre Executive. Detailing what she considers to be a fulfilling milestone from her political career thus far, Rose highlights, “Seeing the housing needed with the wrap-around services provided in our community. There have been great strides to hopefully keep people in their own homes, or to find a place before living on the street.” Rose’s current ambitions and goals include moving forward with the Council and staff work, which is underway: exploring discourse with community leaders and organizations for essential housing and the availability of wrap-around services; ensuring the amenities of childcare, family and senior recreation; and securing doctors for the area. Rose exclaims, “All will meet the new growth coming to St. Thomas.” Those with inquiries are welcome to contact Rose via email at rgibson@stthomas.ca, though directing concerns and questions through the Customer Service link on the City of St. Thomas website will secure the swiftest response: customerservice@stthomas.ca.
