The students and employees at Frances Buzzard’s school in West Virginia adore her and highly esteem her as a school janitor.
The 77-year-old takes meticulous care of Belle Elementary School and always arrives there smiling.
However, when the staff learned that her upbringing wasn’t like other modern children’s, they decided to do something special.
Since Frances was raised in poverty, she had little money to spend on birthday or holiday celebrations.

The staff decided to amend this and throw her a birthday party as a token of appreciation.
They called Frances to the room after 200 staff members and students had gathered to celebrate her birthday, and the cafeteria had been decorated with birthday snacks.
According to the Charleston Gazette-Mail, the loudspeaker said, “Rendell and Ms. Frances, could you kindly report to the cafeteria,” according to the Charleston Gazette-Mail.
Frances thought she was being summoned to carry out a chore, but when she opened the doors and discovered what was there, she couldn’t believe it.

As gifts were brought out into the hallway, the students applauded and sent their best wishes her way. The school also produced a short film featuring Frances’ face in several well-known incidents that she had experienced.
She received royal treatment, including her sash and tiara.
When her family had the money, Frances disclosed that the only presents she had ever received as a child were fruits and nuts.
Oh, there is a huge celebration. I appreciate it because no one has ever done this for me, Frances exclaimed joyfully.
What a lovely honor for such a special lady and a lasting memory. I’m hoping she has many more birthdays to come.
