[Sundaycommunity] ANNOUNCEMENT re Sunday OCTOBER 10 (THANKSGIVING WEEKEND)

[Mr. Gillis]

Congratulations Jean on this beautiful occasion and thank you for your
great service to the community and Church.  I was taught by one of the most
wonderful Sisters of St Joseph Noreen Coston at St. Ambrose elementary
school in Etobicoke in grades 6 and 7 and still have so many fond memories
of her.  She told us fascinating stories of growing up in London during the
Blitz, she was also good friends with the daughter of Frank Zelke another
Sister of St. Joseph and regaled us with tales of visiting him and going to
Montreal Canadians games in the mid 1970s when we were all rabid Toronto
Maple Leafs fans.  Thank you, for stirring these long ago warm memories!

Peace

Greg
