[size=10pt][size=10pt][size=10pt]It?s Done !
Under bright and sunny skies, today, we were able to officially unveil our wall monument to our ancestors.
With somewhere between 150 & 200 people, including our own Irish priest, Father Mike McKenna on-hand, the unveiling ceremony went very well.
It was followed by a great lunch under a large tent, with music by a Celtic group provided by the Town of St. Columban and then, Claude Bourguignon and his niece made a presentation about St. Columban from it?s founding to today ? 175 years.
So thank you to everyone that could attend - and also for the many e-mails from descendants and friends, who were unable to attend - but did send along their best wishes.
So we all hope everyone does get a chance to visit St. Columban and see these completed walls
Take Care
