The Board of Directors for St. Ann’s Academy was totally surprised by the donation
From News Reports
HORNELL Well before his passing in November 2020, Mr. William Sirianni made arrangements to surprise the Board of Directors at St. Ann’s Academy.
Without mentioning it to anyone associated with the Academy, he made arrangements to help them by earmarking a $10,000 donation in his will. It was not his first time making a sizeable donation; Mr. Sirianni was also instrumental when the Academy was started in 2012.
“We became aware of the bequest only after receiving a letter from his attorney John Dagon in January,” said Sister Dolores Ann Stein, who serves on the Board of Directors for St. Ann’s Academy. “We were totally surprised.”
