This is the second shot in a series shot by Joan Taylor where Cardinal Collins is blessing the school.  Again, Paul Pulla looks on from the right.  On the far left, the deacon is W. (Bill) Higgins, who used to teach at OCHS.

The title says it all. Two principals, two nuns, and a former student all rolled into three people.

Why does Pink Floyd lyrics come to mind (The Wall, 1979).  Here is a snap of more commemorative bricks at the school.  Courtesy of Joan Taylor.  Thanks Joan.

My apologies for neglecting this blog.  I have been on the road continuously for a month and a half, and have covered many thousands of miles ranging from the Caribbean to the European continent and the east coast of Canada.  As a result, I missed the May activities and have Joan Taylor to thank for this tranche of pictures that I will display in upcoming posts.

As previously advertised, commemorative bricks were being sold for the reunion activities.  This is a shot of some of them in place.

PS.  I have had to turn off the comments because of the daily link spam that I was getting in the comments.  If you have a comment, by all means please contact me through the email address shown in the side column. Thanks.
