St. Anselm's Abbey School Alumni

Joseph Mariani, '02, stopped by The Abbey today with his sons, Joseph and Peter! This picture was taken as Fr. Peter recited the classic verse, "Cactus in, cactus out, cactus running all about. If you had a high IQ, you could be a cactus too!"

Following their visit with Fr. Peter, the boys departed the school with their father to do garden chores for their grandmother in the spirit of the education Joseph Mariani received at St. Anselm's Abbey School.
