Just a personal comment, my sister was in from California visiting, this past week for Christmas. Last Sunday mom had Mass at St Stan's for my dad, it was the 15 Annv of his death. After Mass several people walked over to our pew, one of the people was Mr Mis from IC. It was so nice to see him and chat with him. He looked good. The Mis Family were always good people.

I found a few old IC Photos recently. This was either an IC 8th Grade or CYO trip to Washington DC, in the early 1960's. The women in the middle is Mrs Gloria Dosen who was a CYO Leader at IC, the guy on the extreme right looks like a Tomszak (sp)
