Alumni weddings are always special affairs, but last Friday
in the 1,000 Islands Region of New York was an extra special night. Will
Griffin and Brittany Burns become husband and wife, thus uniting several school records and two of the
greatest runners in school history – but more importantly, two of the nicest
and most wonderful people this program has ever known. It was a marvelous two days, as I roadtripped there and back with Coach Emeritus Phil Kelly, enabling us to catch up on a variety of topics. That alone was worth it.
As if all that weren’t
enough? Officiating the wedding was Marist Running Alum Matt Janczyk (the Rev.
Brother Jacob Bertrand Janczyk, actually, who is on target to be ordained as a
Roman Catholic priest in the Dominican order within the next year). Matt did a
wonderful job; this, of course, is a biased opinion, but it is one that was
shared by many wedding attendees who did not know him. He has a great future as
a priest, and we are thrilled for Will and Britt, who have a great future as a
married couple. Nicely done!

Beats the pants off of those other run of the mill florists. An actual person responded by phone and email when I inquired about a last minute day-of order and Flower Delivery. It was a wonderful experience I had with them.
