St. John’s was my parish growing up. I was an altar server, received my First Communion, and was Confirmed at St. John's. I went to St. John's grammar school and graduated from NCC. I moved away after I got married but have been back in the parish for around 20 years. I went to Bentley University for my undergraduate degree. I was an Applications Systems Analyst and Software Engineer. I am also a member of the Parish Council'
