Thank you to all who attended the reunion on Sunday, 6 March. It was such an enjoyable day, renewing old friendships as well as laying the foundation to build new ones. We swapped addresses, took photos and created new memories! The day just flew!
To those who couldn’t attend due to ill health (your own or a family member), our very best wishes go out to you for a speedy recovery.
To the staff at Monte Pio, your attention to our needs exceeded our expectations. Thank you for helping to make the day as wonderful as it was.
To CatholicCare, thank you for your very generous donation towards the reunion, it was very much appreciated and helped to keep the cost down.
To those who donated prizes for the raffle, thank you so much, without your generosity there would not have been a raffle. What is a raffle if no one buys a ticket! So to those who bought tickets, thank you.
Nancy and Anne send their most sincere thanks to all who contributed towards their “Thank you” gifts. To say they were stunned at everyone’s generosity would be an understatement.
A very special “Thank you” goes to Anne for her guidance and support with the organising and running of the reunion. Not forgetting how her special brand of humour and sense of fun contributed towards our enjoyment on the day!
To those who shared information and memories with us, we all thank you.
To read Patrick (Rick) Sullivan’s speech, go to the “Reflections” tab and select “Individual Reflections”. To read Rick’s poem “Ghosts of Murray Dwyer” go to the “Reflections” tab and select “Murray Dwyer Poem”.
To the lovely ladies who supplied the lollies, they were such a treat, thank you.
Last, but certainly not least, to the very special group of helpers who assisted and supported me where and when needed on Sunday, thank you, thank you, thank you.
In closing I would like to add my appreciation and thanks to all who attended the reunion, as well as, “The Monte Pio Girls”, “The Graduation Girls”, Sue and Anne for your very special “Thank you” gifts.
Sincerely
Pat James
