Janet has decided to relax a little after a wonderful 22-year career at St. Lucy School in administration. In addition to her work as an administra- tor, Janet organized the St. Vincent de Paul meals for years and years and Co- chaired the annual school rummage sale for over 15 years. She has taken on major volunteer roles at our Fish Fry Dinners, the annual School Fall Fest, the St. Lucy Fes- tival, and School Auction. Janet helps with scrip sales and she is a Eucharistic Minis- ter. Prior to working at the school, Janet volunteered as a tutor, as a room parent, and also in the lunch room. She has been one busy person over the more than 40 years that she has been a member of St. Lucy. Janet has already said that she is retiring from work, but not volunteering. That is her through and through. “Janet, we are so proud of you and so grateful for all that you have done and continue to do for our St. Lucy Family. THANK YOU!” God Bless You, St. Lucy Staff Live the Liturgy Today we celebrate the Divine dance, a perfectly choreo- graphed interplay of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Together they dance and move as one though three unique Persons with distinctive, yet harmonious, patterns and steps.
