Event: Citizen of the Year 2008, Winner Nancy Gallivan

Walpole - Nancy Gallivan is not one to do good deeds expecting recognition. In fact, she gets uncomfortable talking about herself and the things she has done for the community.

"I felt awkward," she said of being named the Chamber of Commerce's Citizen of the Year. "Everything I've done I've done as part of a group and that's where I feel awkward being recognized."

Gallivan, a School Committee member, went so far as to say that she would feel more comfortable with the distinction if say, "20 of us were recognized." "I wouldn't take credit for anything I've done individually," she said.

The Chamber of Commerce has named a Citizen of the Year since 1977. The award recognizes people who have made civic, charitable and spiritual contributions to the community.
