THANK YOU

Lenny Catanoso / The Garden Greenhouse Donate Memorial to Honor Mary Kane

fac2 fac3

Thank you to Mr. Lenny Catanoso, owner and founder of The Garden Greenhouse in Swainton. He created and donated a memorial for Mary Kane, our beloved French and Religion teacher who passed away last year. It will be installed next to the existing memorial for Kelly Fenstemaker Class of 1996, older sister of Anne Fenstemaker Catanoso, Class of 2000. Anne is married to Lenny’s son, Nick, also the Class of 2000.

Pictured are employees of The Garden Greenhouse working hard preparing the space for the memorial. Mr. Catanoso will also be donating a bench in that space to honor Miss Kane. 

After completion, WCA will have a presentation of this memorial site with the addition of a special plaque honoring Miss Kane and her years of service and dedication to our beloved school. 

We are so grateful and honored by the generosity of the Catanoso family!
