Anna M. Gallant
Anna M. Gallant, age 71, of Danielson, CT, formerly of Trumbull, entered into eternal rest peacefully on Wednesday, October 28, 2020 at CT Hospice. She was born in Milford, CT. on September 16, 1949 as the loving daughter of the late William and Irene (Rivnyak) Gallant.
Annie earned her Bachelor of Arts Degree from Sacred Heart University, Fairfield, CT. In 1991, she then earned her Sixth-Year Professional Diploma from Southern CT State University.
Annie began her teaching career at Plainfield High School in Plainfield, CT, teaching history. Her love to teach young students led her to become a Guidance Counselor at St. Bernard School in Uncasville, CT, for 19 years. Annie then went on to teach and counsel at Parish Hill School in Chaplin, CT.
She loved the N.Y. Yankees and Bowling. Annie was the President of the Connecticut Women's Bowling Association for 3 years.

What an amazing part of the PHHS experience. Always so bright, cheerful, and positive. Willing to help anyone, anytime, with anything. One of the reasons that I became an educator myself. She will be missed, but always remembered.

Annie was a special person. Full of life and always smiling. She loved the Yankees so much she would listen to them on the radio, we love them too. That’s what we always talked about when we ran into her at church. It isn’t easy being a Yankees fan in Red Sox’s territory.
Annie was a special person that always left you feeling happy to have talk to her. She will be remembered always.

One of the most influential teacher I had the privilege of having, I certainly would not be where I am today without her guidance and motivation. Her humor and her love for her students was unmatched. Much love Ms. Gallant!

She was one amazing guidance counselor to everyone at parish hill. She made school not feel so horrible and always had a smile or a piece of advice to help anyone out

Annie will be missed by so many. She was a wonderful, kind, funny lady. So many lives she touched in such positive ways. A wonderful mentor for so many young people. My son Thomas adored her. Id like to thank her for encouraging him, teaching him and caring so much. I’m sure all of Parish Hill High School will mourn the loss for a long time to come. Rest In Peace.
