The
Mary J. Feltes Science
Suite
Serving as chair of the
science department at St. Francis High School for
24 years, Mary passed away February 20, 2009 from
heart failure at the age of 64. Just prior to
her passing, Mary described the new science suite
as her dream. The science labs had not been
touched in other capital campaigns at St. Francis,
because, as Mary said, "I did not want a band-aid
or a quick fix; I wanted the science labs done
right." Completing the
Dream became more than the title of
the completion phase of the campaign, it became a
battle cry in Mary's honor.
On
Sunday, February 21, 2010, mass was celebrated at
St. Francis High School in honor of the late Mary
J. Feltes. An architectural rendering was
unveiled depicting the Mary J. Feltes Science
Suite, named in her honor.
We are in
the home stretch of the completion phase of our
capital campaign. This is a true testament to
the generous people of the St. Francis
community. There is still time to make a
financial gift and help complete the
dream.
