Anna, today we celebrate you!! After 18 incredible years, Anna is retiring from Whole Foods Napa.

Anna started on opening day in 2008 and has been a steady, friendly presence in front-end customer service ever since. With support from Napa Valley Support Services, she built a career defined by consistency, dedication, and connection.

One of the most special moments of today—her original job coach was there to celebrate her retirement, 18 years later.

Anna’s journey is a powerful reminder that our community members bring lasting value to the workplace through reliability, relationships, and deep institutional knowledge.

She was celebrated with cake, ice cream, and a lot of well-deserved appreciation.

Congratulations, Anna—we are so proud of you!
