Roxanne
Heannings was hired by Delaware County on 5/16/2011 as an Account
Clerk with Social Services. On 6/3/2012, Roxanne was promoted to
Senior Account Clerk in the Department of Public works. She was
later promoted on 3/22/2020 to Administrative Aide at Veterans
Service Agency, where she was promoted to her current position of
Assistant to Director Veterans Services on 1/1/2022.
Roxanne was instrumental in
developing a training program for the office and with New York State
Veteran Services. She followed a regimented schedule and learned
various aspects of Veteran Services while simultaneously acquiring a
NYS accreditation. This was the first time a non-veteran has been
accredited, and it was only due to her willingness to learn all
aspects that she was able to get everything accomplished. Roxanne
submits pension and other claims for veterans or for their surviving
spouses.
Roxanne has an amazing work
ethic and has an ability to undertake anything that is thrown at
her. Roxanne is always searching for ways to make the department
more efficient, capable, and cost conscious. Charlie says Roxanne is
his right-hand person and he trusts her implicitly.
Roxanne enjoys interacting
with the veterans daily and assisting them with obtaining the
benefits they deserve!
Roxanne has a fiancé Rob
Ellsworth, a daughter, Brinley, and son, Garrett (in heaven).
Roxanne enjoys watching her daughter play sports, going to concerts,
and socializing with her many friends.
Congratulations and Thank
You, Roxanne, on a job well done!
