“I was one of the Brothers teaching music at Cardinal Mooney. I left the Holy Cross Order as a priest in 1985. I have been working with a global consulting firm for 23 years where I am General Manager. We have 99 offices in 47 countries. I have had the opportunity to work on 5 of the 7 continents…I have four children who work in finance, autism, aviation and acting. We live on Governor’s Island on Lake Winnepesaukee in NH although my office is in NY.
I saw Father Haycock and Charles Kociolek at a priests reunion. Father Haycock is at St. Lawrence in Greece. Charlie works at Kings College in Wilkes Barre PA. I have had the opportunity to do consulting work with Sr. Joanne Lappetito when she was head ethicist for the Catholic Health Association. Blessings on all Mooney Community – living and deceased.” John Larrere

“Hi, I taught English at Mooney from February 1973 through June 1981. Once a month a few members of the Class of ‘74 go to breakfast together and I am honored to be invited to join them. Now that they are well into their fifties, we seem to be (and are) the same generation. Sad to say, Spanish teacher Jerry Hertweck passed away a short time ago. He’d had multiple strokes. His wife Rosie gave him the tenderest care possible. Some of our group went to the funeral and reported seeing Ed Nietopski there…so he can’t be dead! Laura, I can remember you–a lovely blonde young lady, right?–but I don’t know if I taught you English or Theology. Two years ago I retired from teaching English and Creative Writing at Canandaigua Academy (a public high school), and now I am living happily ever after. Warm regards to all my former students, a wonderful group of people!” Joann Hinz

Just to say so sorry to hear about Jerry. He was there when I was teaching Social Studies between 1975-77. He was always a big help to the young teachers.

Hello to all students and faculty of CMHS.
I taught math from 1975-1976 and again from 1981-1989 when we closed.
I am presently teaching at Webster Schroeder High School here in Rochester.
If anyone knows Mike Desposito’s email address, please send it to me as I would enjoy reconnecting with him.

Wow! I just saw my picture in the faculty section! Thanks for remembering me so prominently. Anyway, after leaving Mooney in 1978, I was ordained a Holy Cross priest in 1985 and currently serve as Chaplain at Albany Medical Center and also as Chaplain for a community of 35 Holy Cross Brothers in Valatie, NY.
