Honoring Mrs. Sunny Doxey ๐๐
๐ For those who know Mrs. Doxey, you know the incredible impact she has had on generations of students and families in the Kenston community. After a distinguished career as an elementary teacher in Kenston Schools, Sunny continued sharing her passion for education through her volunteer work at the Chagrin Falls Park Community Center.
๐ Now, after years of continuing to teach, inspire, and serve, Sunny is โofficiallyโretiring from her volunteer role as well. Her kindness, dedication, and unwavering commitment to helping others learn and grow have left a lasting mark on our community.
โค๏ธ Thank you, Mrs. Doxey, for the countless lives youโve touched, the lessons youโve taught, and the example youโve set. Your contributions have made Kenston and the surrounding community a better place, and you will be deeply missed.
๐๐ผ๐๐ฝ Please join us in celebrating Sunny and wishing her a happy, healthy, and well-deserved โofficialโ retirement! โค๏ธ

What an incredible story of friendship, shared purpose, and professional excellence!
๐โ๏ธ๐ Weโre proud to celebrate fellow Kenston Bombers Dr. Mark and Dr. Kelly as they mark 30 years in dentistry.
๐๐ฆท From classmates to colleagues, their journey is a wonderful reminder of how lasting connections can come full circle.
๐๐ผ๐๐ผ Congratulations on this milestone and your continued dedication to caring for our community!
Kenston Schools
Thirty years after graduating from dental school, Dr. Mark and Dr. Kelly are celebrating a milestone that comes with a great story behind it. Long before dentistry, the two were friends and fellow Bombers at Kenston High School. In a surprising twist of fate, when they each became dentists, neither even knew the other had entered the same profession. Now, three decades later, these two Kenston Bombers have come full circle โ reunited not only by friendship, but by a shared passion for dentistry and caring for their family of patients at Dentistry at Winbury!
