SAD NEWS



The Nolan Catholic Community lost one of its own. Mary Ellen Byrnes meant so much to the Nolan Catholic Community and so much to Lady Vikings Soccer. The program would not be what it is today without her support. Mary Ellen will truly be missed and will never be forgotten.

Mary Ellen worked her eight years in the Athletic Office. She has been at NCHS since 1986. She and her husband Bob have four boys: Brian '88, Danny '90, Michael '96, and Tommy '00, all of whom played basketball and baseball. Bob and Mary Ellen have been involved with the Viking Club all these years and supported the Vikings.


We ask you to continue to pray for repose of the soul of Mary Ellen, and to pray for Bob, her sons, her family, and the entire Nolan Catholic Community.

Monday, Feb. 2
Visitation at Thompson's Harveson & Cole Funeral Home starting at 5:30pm.

The Mary Ellen Byrnes Memorial Fund

This fund will provide tuition assistance to Nolan Catholic students.
