On Saturday, May 20, the Parish staff gifted Fr. Rice a clock and pen set and sock of the month club. On Monday, June 5, St. Kateri School students, faculty and staff shared their memories of the Fr. Rice during morning prayer; some favourites included Fr. Rice greeting students as St. Nicholas on the feast day, teaching line dancing, and blessing the animals on the Feast of St. Francis.
