Dear Gargan Family:

Every time I saw Mike, he had a peace about him, and a smile that would warm a room. I just saw him the other morning in passing, and reflected on my time at STJES with your children. I know that God will grant you the strength to continue in the positive spirit your Dad instilled in you and everyone he touched in this lifetime. Much love to you all during this difficult time. Mrs. Gretchen Kingan (Previous Technology Teacher)
