Fr. Marcel Bouchard's 35th Anniversary of Ordination, May 13, 2007

We thanked Fr. Bouchard with a standing ovation for his 35 years of unselfish service to our Church and our parish. Children presented him with some large greeting cards they'd made. Many came up to him after Mass to congratulate him and give him cards and best wishes.
