In Loving Memory of Jay Wesch

Our beloved Mercy Maintenance Supervisor, Mr. Jay Wesch passed away after a brief illness in August. Mr. Wesch devoted 27 1/2 years to Mercy High School, and was a strong supporter of our Mercy family. Each morning our school was welcoming, safe and clean because of Jay's MANY efforts. He was also an accomplished drummer, and many times joined in to help with Mercy performances! We know students and staff greeted Mr. Wesch each day, and his smile and care for us will be greatly missed.

“Even after I retired, I would often stop in to school and see Jay still pushing his broom with a big smile.....to me he was "Mr. Mercy." ~ George Wright

“There will never be another like you! You were the true definition of resilience and strength. Your work effort was uncompromising. I’m going to miss your big laughs.” ~ Alisa Kelly

“Working with him more closely in operations gave me a couple of special insights. He was very devoted to his wife, Hope. Also, Jay was a very talented drummer. He did the rock group thing in his youth but was devoted to jazz in later life, performing until fairly recently. He once traded licks at the school talent show with one of our talented students.” ~ Larry Baker

“As a student, you always had a smile for me and greeted me by name. It was a shock for me when I came back to the school as a legacy mom and you greeted me with a smile and remembered my name! What a gift it was for me to share with my daughter the experience of your welcome, kindness and care. You embody the teaching of the Venerable Catherine McAuley: "Our charity is to be cordial...something that renews, invigorates and warms. Such should be the effect of our love for In October 2020, Mary Harkness ‘70 celebrated 50 years of each other." Thank you for sharing that cordiality and love with dedication to Mercy High School.

After nearly 45 years of service to Mercy High School, Mr. Larry Baker (Associate Principal of Operations) retired in January 2020. Mr. Baker’s legacy to Mercy is phenomenal. He has served as an exemplary English teacher, technology leader, two time State Championship Mercy Varsity Basketball coach, teacher, coach, mentor, and gentle friend to many.

The strength of our educational technology program and repeated recognition as an Apple Distinguished School is an outcome of Larry’s expertise and leadership. Mr. Baker has also been instrumental in the development of English curriculum and active based challenge learning. He showcases the success of our dynamic and accomplished Mercy alumnae through the podcast he championed, Accent on Alumnae.

We are enormously grateful to Mr. Baker for his passion and commitment to Mercy High School students, parents, faculty, staff and the administrative team. We wish him a retirement filled with love, laughter and pride in knowing he has truly made a difference to our Mercy family!

15 2020 Distinguished Alumnae Recipient, Anne Wynsberge Nemes '68

I eventually realized it was after all 2020, nothing can surprise us this year! I eventually realized that what the alumnae board was honoring was not the position one has in this life but how one lives their “normal” life. This I believe we learned during our 4 years at Mercy and from our families. So I would like to accept this award for all the Mercy girls who have lived normal, everyday lives doing the best they could. So many of my friends from Mercy are teachers, nurses, social workers and mothers. They have all made this world special to those they have helped. To quote The Venerable Catherine McCauley, “We must strive to do ordinary things extraordinary well.”

Reading the nomination that my husband and daughter Nadine ’92 wrote makes me sound like someone special, but actually I feel that because of the examples I had in my life. From those close to me and my years at Mercy, I realize that doing what I have done took no effort. I guess you could say it was ingrained in me.

The values I learned at Mercy were to do the best you can and always be open to the needs of those around you. Actually, I believe the life I have lived has been a very selfish one because I have gotten a lot more from the people I have helped than I have given them.

Though we were only at Our Lady of Mercy High School for 4 years, they were very formative years. The atmosphere at Mercy allowed us to express ourselves in a safe environment. We were encouraged to strive to fulfill our dreams. The class of 1968 I believe is a very special group of women. Whenever I attend a reunion it’s like we were in school just yesterday. Because of my experience at Mercy, I was very happy when my daughter Nadine and my granddaughter Mattie Langley ’23 Anne Wynsberge Nemes ‘68 (far right) pictured with her daughter Nadine decided to attend Mercy as well. Nemes Langley ‘92 and granddaughter Mattie Langley ‘23 I want to thank everyone who has inspired and supported me. My parents who sacrificed to send me to Mercy; my husband I am very honored and surprised to be given the honor of the of 50 years, Dan who has supported me every step of the 2020 Mercy High School Distinguished Alumna Award.

So the next day I contacted Cheryl to ask if it was a joke stating that I was Thank you, really just a normal person who had done nothing special. She assured me that I was the one Alumnae Board picked. Anne Wynsberge Nemes '68 I started thinking why would I be picked above the 16,000+ alumnae?

16 Council on Racial Equity

Mission The Council’s mission is to build awareness, solutions and leadership for anti-racist, anti-biased structures, policies and practices at Mercy High School. We will work with the school and the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer to identify systemic racism within the community, analyze the specific barriers to change, and dismantle the structures within the institution that perpetuate racism.

We appreciate the dedication of the volunteer CORE Founder, Sommer Woods ‘95. CORE will soon receive applications for Subcommittee volunteers in these eleven (11) focus areas:
