Erna Hibbs

Chaplain Hibbs is currently serving as a house chaplain in a nursing home facility in Simcoe, Ontario. She has assisted Veterans living in the facility with obtaining benefits and services that they were not aware were available to them. She ensures that all of the Veterans in the nursing home are treated with the highest respect and receive all justifiable benefits and pensions. Chaplain Hibbs used to work for a trucking firm where many of the drivers were Veterans. Realizing that many were working with disabilities sustained in their military service and had been turned down for benefits or financial assistance, she began doing research on a voluntary basis to help them. Chaplain Hibbs also became a Chaplain with the Korea War Veterans Association of Canada and has assisted several Veterans from Newfoundland in their appeals.
