With both joy and sadness, we wish Mrs. Lorraine Segboer all the best as she retires from many years of service with CTR. Lorraine has been the face and voice of St. JPII since the school opened, and she has been a source of care and support for all who have spent time in our building. You will be missed! You are loved! #StJPIIRocks #benotafraid #happyretirement #youareloved #ctrcatholic
