April Rose, ’74, enjoys retirement
We were happy to hear from April Rose, BCHS Class of 1974, retired R.N., mother and grandmother. She writes:
“I have lived in Carmel for 39 years. I have 3 children and four grandchildren. I have worked at Naab Road Surgery Center for the past 26 years and and been an R.N. for 45 years.
My husband and I enjoy cruising through Europe, Alaska, Hawaii and the Caribbean as often as we can. Retirement is sweet so far”.

Patrick Price, ’65, motorcoaches the nation
Patrick Price, BCHS Class of 1965, lives full-time in a 45-foot motorcoach, but that hasn’t stopped him from staying connected with his fellow alumni! “I’m constantly on the move across North America, always chasing the perfect weather,” Patrick shared.
Despite being on the road, Patrick enjoys staying in touch with his fellow classmates, attending all-city reunions and most recently joining the Class of ’66 for their reunion with alumni from eleven area Catholic high schools. “More than 90 of us gathered at the school for our 50th reunion. Now, it’s been 60 years!”
As a member of Bishop Chatard’s very first graduating class, Patrick laughingly recalled, “It all began with us and the Class of 1965! We’re the founding children, not the founding fathers!”
