Letters from Alumni & Friends of the SRLAA
   

A beautiful letter received from Sister Catherine Moran, OP Chair, St. Rose of Lima Board (05)

Dear Board Members,

There’s always excitement and a bit of sorrow at the “changing of the guard”. 

The new are walking (however warily) into the virtually unknown.  The old are walking (however happily) away from the known – standard, normal reactions to change. 

To you who are leaving a job well- started, thank you.  You have already set up Alumni traditions which have mightily impressed students and school staff as well as the Chair of the St. Rose of Lima School Board. 

In his holiday greetings to St Rose of Lima School Alumni Association, Richard Lorenzo, former chairman indicated the “bounty” which the membership has provided for St. Rose students, staff, and school building.  In addition, your presence at special times has been noted and appreciated – it is a gift of time.  What has impressed me most is your sincerity and outpouring of concern for children and teachers. 

Again, I thank you. 

To you generous ones who have taken up the torch, thank you.  St. Rose School Community looks forward to a continuation of a great relationship both with the Board and non-Board members.  The school needs you and appreciates all that you will be doing to keep your alma mater running smoothly. 

Thank you for taking on yet another volunteer job. 

My prayers for everyone are for peace and joy in all countries and households.  Let’s look forward to that time when, in all the world, all is calm, all is bright. 

My deepest gratitude to the St. Rose of Lima Alumni Association. 

                                                                      Sincerely, 

                                                                      Sister Catherine Moran, OP                                                                       Chair, St. Rose of Lima School Board
