Mount Hosts Luncheon for Alumnae Grandmothers of Current Students

"Spes messis in semine" is the Mount's motto. It translates to, "the hope of the harvest is in the seed." That sentiment was evident on April 10, when alumnae who are grandmothers of current students were invited to the Mount to have lunch with their granddaughters. It was a lovely afternoon celebrating the legacy and sisterhood of the Mount.

In attendance were:

• Marie Meaney Adolph ’53 with granddaughter Nora Furletti ’22
• Andrea Fluehr Albert ’70 and granddaughter Grace Gibbons ’21
• Donna DePaul Bartynski ’70 with Katherine Convey ’22 
• Dolores Bobrowski Bowes ’45 with granddaughter Bryn McLaughlin ’19
• Madge Mansell Keehn ’50 with Allysa Charlton ’20 and Stow Weiss '19
• Joan Burger King ’63 and granddaughter Mackenzie Craig ’22
• Peggy Maxfield '53** and granddaughter Grace Araya ’22
• Elizabeth DeMeno McKee ’62 with granddaughter Grace Toriello ’21
• Eileen Heck Slawek ’48 and granddaughter Gabriella Cilio ’21

*Jane Ledwith Charlton (deceased) is the grandmother of Allysa Charlton and Stow Weiss. Madge Mansell Keehn was close friends with Jane, and attended the lunch with Jane's granddaughters.

**Peggy Maxfield graduated from the Mount Saint Joseph Academy in the Boston area. She was instrumental in her granddaughter deciding to attend MSJA, and she was invited to share lunch with her.
