Good bye and farewell!

Sent off in style thanks to musicians.

Yes, thanks to Ned Vogel, Steds moms were treated to a finale like none. At the closing Sunday Mass in the Chapel of Sts. Edward and John, Vogel oversaw a string quartet, composed of members of the Notre Dame Symphony Orchestra, that played various pieces. The high point was Ralph Vaughn Williams' "The Lark Ascending" played during Communion by sophomore violinist Jen. Of the musical feat, Vogel said, "Having the quartet join us for Mass not only made it an extra special way to wrap up Mothers' Weekend, but it also added to the great beauty of the Mass and our Chapel." Indeed it did Ned... indeed it did!
