In Loving Memory
“Well done, good and faithful servant … enter into the joy of your master.” – Matthew 25:23
This year, St. Mary’s Ryken mourns the loss of beloved members of our community — former staff, mentors, alumni, friends of SMR and Xaverian Brothers whose lives left a lasting impact on our school. Their dedication, kindness, and contributions will not be forgotten.
