President's Message
Dear Ladies,
I can’t believe this is my last newsletter message – it has been a privilege to act as President of the Ladies
Auxiliary this year. I want to thank everyone for their support – the bonds of friendship and family help this group every year. It is an honor to be a part of it! I would like to congratulate Ro Prendergast, PP once again for being chosen as the Lady of the Year this year. And I want to give a great big thanks to Kim Marchetti, PP, for her dedication these past years as she steps off the board. I started this year by saying I would do my best to serve you as President, and as I move on to Trustee, I know I have done just that. Enjoy your summer! God bless you, your families, and your loved ones.
God Bless!
Tricia Daley, President
