R.I.P. Mrs. Joan Farrelly

It is with profound shock and sadness that Maryknoll announces the unexpected death of Mrs. Joan Farrelly who passed away earlier today.

Joan worked most recently as Supervisor Bank Deposit/Business Office in the Finance-Cashiers Department. Many Maryknollers came to know Joan in the Business Office in our main building.

About seventy-five Maryknollers and employees attended a prayer service this afternoon in Mary, Queen of Apostles chapel. Fr. Dave Smith presided, Fr. Mike Duggan lead the singing and Fr. Joe LaMar was lector.

Hispanic Heritage Day

Maryknollers, employees and guests gathered in the Asia Room (?!) to celebrate Hispanic Heritage with speeches, videos, music --- and food! Homemade offerings included tortillas, chicken with rice, empanadas --- the whole enchilada. Literally!
