Memory
Pages:
Even if you cannot attend the evening, please take a
few minutes to write down your best memories of him, or a note to him on
an 8 1/2x11 sheet of paper.
Please write your St. Justin graduation year in the top right corner of the page We will be 3-hole punching these and placing them all in a bound book for him that evening. Producing his memory book this way allows to add pages for any folks who did not attend the event, sending them in later. If all pages are 8 1/2 by 11 size, they will all fit properly in the bound book.
If you are attending that evening, you can drop them off at the table inside the door if you didn't take time to mail it ahead of time.
If you are unable to attend, please mail your memory page to the school - also attn: GS Retirement
So many folks will attend and maybe not get a chance to speak to him that evening, this way he can enjoy hearing from each of us.
If you include your name and mailing address, and email address if you have one - on the page you write for him, he can have a way to stay in touch with you.

to scan and email pix - send them to
