On June 25 I met at St.Raphael Academy with Brother Thomas, Mr. Terry Murray, teacher and co-director of the Drama Club, Darby Castigligo, Vice President of Operations, and Laura Loffredo, Director of Development, to donate my book, Friends are Thicker than Water, to the school library.
It is amazing how Saints always has such qualified and dedicated people working at the school. Brother Thomas has done a great job as producer of the Saints newsletter. He will be leaving Saints this summer and will teach in September at a school in New Jersey. New Jersey's gain is Saint Raphael's loss. Brother Thomas is the last brother teaching at Saints. Lay teachers will now carry the teaching torch.
In 1955, most of the teachers were Brothers with only a few lay teachers. The school is now co-ed, starting in 1974. Brother Thomas' duties will be taken over by the capable Mr. Murray who is also the renowned theatre arts teacher and play director at Saints.
