Chris, I know Carol was hoping we could find you for an NFL reunion we had some years ago in Tampa. If you can get in touch with me, I'll pass it on to Carol. Br. Jerome Leo, OSB, aka Philip Hughes aka Tom Snout. You carried the play as Puck!
I was also one of Sister Carol’s students at Tampa Catholic way back in the 60s. Sister, your influence on my life cannot be overstated. You are an amazing person and a gift to all of us who have known you and while it’s been many years since we last talked I’ve been continually impressed by all you’ve done and accomplished. The Class of ‘67 was blessed to have you with us. Now may God continue to bless you!
