Dear Parishioners,

On August 15th, Carmen Spindler will be retiring after 22 years of working here at Resurrection. This is her second career beginning after her retirement from the fire department. She will be dearly missed as Carmen has that gentle demeanor that greeted us as we came to work in the morning. She has that nice phone voice too that welcomed so many people to our parish programs. Carmen has mainly worked for Marty Bode over the years, but began her service here working for Ruth Puls and has also helped Don Henderson and Chris Lederer and Alice Appleby as a money counter. I will especially miss her accounts of her weekend activities that we shared each week at the lunch table.

Carmen has expressed how this position has opened the doors to becoming more active in the Church, of getting to know so many nice people in the parish and making many friends. While we wish her the best as she begins her second retirement, knowing Carmen, she will be volunteering often. So, we look forward to seeing that smiling face around often. Thanks Carmen. We love you.

Fr. John
