Iconic Boston Hospital Scoops up one of Gardner’s Finest
It was only a matter of time, but it has happened. Someone outside the City has hired away one of Gardner’s most positive forces, Colin Smith. Gardner’s Executive Aide Colin Smith will work his last day in the Chair City on Friday, December 1, 2023. Then it is off to Boston Children’s Hospital to a new position in administration. Executive Assistant to the Mayor Rachael Roberts will be busy filling the void temporarily until a new Executive Aide is hired.
Unfortunately, when a City gets noticed for its excellence, some of the people responsible for its success get noticed as well. Gardner Magazine is sure that Colin will leave good notes for his successor who certainly has big shoes to fill.
Colin served as an Aide to Mayor Michael Nicholson when Nicholson was a Town Administrator in Rutland and moved to the Gardner Mayor’s office when Michael Nicholson became Mayor in July 2020. The Mayor has often complimented Colin for his efforts on behalf of the City of Gardner.
