This month my second daughter graduates from the University of Holy Cross and we are so proud of her accomplishments.
Mallary began her collegiate pursuits at Spring Hill College in Mobile, Ala. After transferring in her second year to be closer to home, she found a welcoming community and prestigious curriculum at UHC.
She followed her heart back to New Orleans — as I did in my college career — starting at one school but finishing close to home. In both cases, it was love that brought us back; love for our city, family and a special someone in our lives.
Of all my daughters Mallary is most similar to me, definitely inheriting most of my genes. Our family and those who know us know we share similar mannerisms and have the same disposition. She is one of the most compassionate and loving people I know.
With a desire to learn the business, she has been working here at Renaissance Publishing while in college. It’s heartwarming to have one of my children by my side with a drive to grow here professionally.
Here’s is a little lagniappe: during our company Halloween party this year, Mallary came in costume as me: suit, shoes, glasses, bowtie and all. Her impression was spot-on.
We are so proud of her accomplishments and know she will be a success. Congratulations Mallary, we are honored to see the inspiring young woman you have become.
