Over 1,000 Attend Mother-Son Breakfast February 4
The Catholic High School
Mothers’ Club hosted the 21st
Annual Mother-Son Breakfast
on Sunday, February 4, 2007 at
the Holiday Inn Select Grand
Ballroom. Over 1,000 mothers
and sons enjoyed breakfast in
the ballroom that had been
transformed into “Bears in
Hollywood” a “Walk on the Red
Carpet,” complete with giant
golden “Oscar Bears” and a large
black limousine.
Mothers and sons were
entertained by soloist Mark
Primeaux ’07 along with the
CHS Advanced Men’s Choir and
Schola Cantorum, the advanced
mixed choir. Each young man and
his mother had the opportunity
to commemorate the event with
a professional photo.
Guest speakers for the event
were Mayor Kip Holden and
Police Chief Jeff LeDuff.
“Our guest speakers were
fabulous. Mayor Holden quoted
scripture to give an inspiring
speech and Chief LeDuff was
so heartfelt as he complimented
our boys and challenged
them to be the future leaders
of our community. Le Duff
was accompanied by his wife,
Kassandra, and his mother, Mrs.
Norma LeDuff. This breakfast
was especially nostalgic for the
LeDuffs because their son, Kelly,
graduated from Catholic High
in 2001,” commented Joanne
Roberts, CHS Mothers’ Club
president.
Shelly Dick chaired the
event, with Patti Sollie and Sylvia
Gerace serving as her assistants.
