Goodbye to all from Julia
Goodbye to my St. Michael’s family.
Together we have shared sorrow (my husband Bob’s death and funeral) and joy (the baptisms of my grandchildren Joanna and Robby).
Together we have served on the vestry, worked on the English Faire, made Casa Maria egg salad sandwiches and prepared cookies for Primavera.
We have participated in MLK Day marches and traveled to Guatemala. We have bowled, attended the Gaslight Theater and eaten Ethiopian food. We have meditated at the House of Prayer and worshiped at Taize, on elaborate feast days and simple weekday services and every Sunday.
Thank you for letting me be a part of all this.
I am moving to Wisconsin for a new job.
