My deepest sympathies on the loss if your mother. You may not remember me but I also lived on the 2800 block of 17th Street in Philadelphia and I remember your grandfather, your mother and you both very well. Perhaps in a way I should thank your mother for sending you and making the choice that Saint Leonard's Academy would be your high school. I knew when I was leaving 8th grade that I wanted something different for my education and when I spoke to you both and your mother there was no doubt in my mind Saint Leonard's would be the perfect fit. Saint Leonard's, the Holy Child Sisters and Cornelia Connelly left a profound mark on my life. I even traveled to Sussex England 2 years ago to visit her burial place. I offer thoughts, prayers, light and love to you and yours and a special prayer of thanks to your mother.
