Msgr. Walter Schroeder, and Deacons Richard Trapani and Albert Loeffler.

Many family members, friends and parishioners attended the event,
making this special time even more meaningful for Sr. Clarice. The parish
welcomed all the guests with warm "northern" hospitality,
hosting a beautiful reception after the Mass. The Teresian Sisters were
also able to take advantage of the delightful cool weather of New York,
and spent a few days enjoying the beauty of the surrounding regions. |
