THANK YOU
Thank You for joining in and supporting Fr. Rey’s Appreciation Party on Saturday, June 25th. The outpouring of your love, respect, and support touched his heart. Our sincere gratitude to the many volunteers who planned such an amazing and successful event organized by the Davis Filipino group led by Ruth Asmundson, Gigi Mar, and Karey Spivey. Every detail was special and meaningful ranging from the lovely decorations, lively entertainment, and eloquent remarks by many friends during the open mic portion of the program as we dined on delicious foods and beverages. The warmth and adoration of over two hundred parish members filled the Appreciation event and created a heartwarming evening. The Appreciation event was due to the generosity of the numerous volunteers providing food and beverages, generous donations of money, wine and flowers, and the many set-up, servers, and clean-up volunteers. John Brennan, the emcee, guided us through the evening with Susan Holmes, Claudia Marquez, and John sharing touching remarks about Fr. Rey’s six years of devotion and effective service at St. James Church and School. The highlight was the presentation of a special gift of a quilt from Nina Marshall signed by many parishioners. Thank you, Fr. Rey from the bottom of our hearts – you’ll always have a home at St. James Church. We wish you God’s blessings on your new journey of service at St. Francis.
