To Sister Mary Jo Coyle:
It is so good to see you in this picture, as I recall fondly our two years together at St Joseph Bishop leblond High School. Though it was a difficult two years, it truly was one that strengthened my faith, and I appreciate the leadership you showed and placed in me as a teacher. Wishing you many blessings.
God’s peace,
Richard Murphy
Sister Mary Jo Coyle:
I was a part time teacher at Hayden High School and you were the principal. I was not catholic but had just had a baby and you allowed me to bring him to school with me as I taught the last hour of the day. Your knowledge, humor and sense of joy always has stayed with me. I think of you fondly and am glad to see this picture!
