Goldie Marie Fralick makes Wellborn proud to claim her. She was born and raised here, went to Wellborn School as long as there was one and graduated from Suwannee High School, LCCC, and got her B.S.N at U of F. She was involved with nurses in training when she was in charge of the L.P.N. Vo Tech program before she became school nurse at the middle school. R.N. Goldie sees as many as 70 students in a day and must triage each one. She does a lot of comforting, counseling and mothering, prayerfully, as well as tending to their physical problems.
