Beautification — King Commemoration Returns

Historical April–May 2024 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

We had an excellent Martin Luther King commemoration on Sunday Jan 14th at St Roch church with choirs from Grace United Methodist Church, St Roch, and New Cote Brilliante Church of God. Our Keynote Speaker was Winnie Sullivan, CEO of PenUltimate Press and a neighbor of Skinker DeBaliviere.

She was recruited by Mary Abkemeire of St Roch parish. Neighbor and St Roch parishioner Mary Pat O’Gorman did a wonderful job as emcee. Despite the single digital temperatures we had an impressive turnout of over 60 participants.

We have not been able to do this event for about 5 years, and it had not been held at St Roch for many years.

We are proud to bring it back into circulation.
