toward the construction of Seton’s Brooks
Center, which has enhanced the athletic
and music programs.
With John and Jean now residing in a
nursing home, their children continue to
carry on the Doran Family Foundation,
which has helped many Catholic Schools
in the area. The Doran Family lives out
the Seton philosophy of service to others
by paying forward the blessings that
God has given to them over the years.
Because of their generosity, many young
adults will be morally, intellectually, and
socially prepared for the future.
Kim Neely, class of 1991, was the
epitome of Seton excellence. Her
teachers, friends and family remembered
her as a young adult who was active
in the Seton choir, who enjoyed her
religion classes, and who held her Seton
values close to her heart. Even into her
adulthood, she practiced serving others
and revered human life. She was her
family and friends biggest fan, and in
return they loved her tremendously.
Although, Kim is no longer with us on
earth, she remains an angel that rests
in the hearts of many. Her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Kenneth Neely, carry on her
memory by providing a scholarship to
a current Seton student whose moral
values and ambition replicate the spirit
of Kim. Seton is grateful for alumnae,
such as Kim, who set an example for
women of the future.
As stated in the Elizabeth Seton High
School Hall of Fame Creed, each of these
inductees has “imparted to Seton his or
her own desire to seek always the light
to know and the grace to do”. As family
and friends gathered on October 9th to
celebrate these inductions, a spirit of
thanksgiving filled the Seton auditorium:
a deep appreciation for each inductee
who has paved the way for the future of
our school and for the young women who
strive to be a part of its greatness. The
Elizabeth Seton High School Community
will be forever grateful for their service
and love.

The Vision of the Public Eyes
Gabrielle Wynn worked as an
intern for Prism Public Relations Firm
in Washington, DC. Clients sought
assistance from this firm to position
themselves well in the public eye both by
building relationships through effective
media and by doing damage control to
reduce negative perceptions.
Gabrielle was responsible for
maintaining the client’s public media
portfolio by gathering daily media clips
of the client’s business through the use of
a variety of search engines and through
extensive media reading. In doing so,
Gabrielle said she learned the value of
“time management, of accuracy in your
research, and of trying new tasks.”
Gabrielle enjoyed working in an
environment that was professional,
but not uptight. The company’s
sense of family, which was extended to
her the day the earthquake shook the
Washington Metropolitan area, made a
deep impression on her.
Her Words of sWisdom for the Workforce:
“The Company wants
you to do well: don’t
be afraid to ask for
help, to admit your
mistakes, and to
communicate with
your supervisors.”
