Dear Malden Catholic Alumni,

It has been an exciting month at Malden Catholic! With the ongoing construction at 50 Crystal Street to expand MC's programs and the reunion of so many alumni back at MC, it has been a truly fulfilling time for the Malden Catholic community.

In my continuous efforts to maintain the strong connection within our alumni, I have been actively engaging with many of you to collect updated contact information for our database. Our alumni network is an invaluable asset, and my primary objective is to keep it current.

I kindly request your assistance in sharing this message with your fellow alumni. Encouraging them to connect with us and provide any updates to their contact details, career progress, or life events will not only keep you informed about the latest news within our community but also enable us to offer support to all our alumni. Please feel free to contact me directly with any updates you'd like to share at 781.475.5334 or rlayton@maldencatholic.org.

I appreciate your help and participation in having a significant impact on the strength of our alumni network.

Thank you for your continued support, and I look forward to staying in touch!

MC's First-Ever Alumni BBQ was a Huge Success!

I would like to thank all of our wonderful alumni who joined us at the first-ever Alumni BBQ to celebrate the career of Mr. Robert Bucchino '71, P'10. Your presence, enthusiasm, and unwavering support made the event truly special.

It was fantastic to see so many familiar faces at MC, catching up with old friends and connecting with those of you who are new to our alumni community. It's evident that the bond we share remains as strong as ever.

Thank you for being a part of this special day and for being such an integral part of our alumni family. We eagerly anticipate building upon the connections and memories created at the Alumni BBQ during future MC events. You can also view more photos from the event on MC's SmugMug through this link (password - maldencatholic99).

Lancers of Golf Tournament

We had a sell-out crowd of over 120 MC alumni and friends at the 37th Annual Malden Catholic Classic. Congratulations to James Castrucci '10, Craig Carbonneau '09, John Carbonneau '09, and Brandon Cummings, who finished in 1st Place!

It was wonderful to see old friends reconnect, and new friendships form as everyone enjoyed a day of golf, good company, and decent weather (aside from those of us who experienced the brief hailstorm).

We would like to thank our volunteers, players, and generous sponsors for making our event such a tremendous success! Beyond the joy of the day itself, your contributions raised nearly $50,000 for student scholarships. Your generosity will help us continue to make a difference in the lives of those who follow in our footsteps.

As we reflect on the success of the event, we are already looking forward to next year's Lancers of Golf. We hope to see even more of our alumni come together for a day of golf, laughter, and camaraderie.

MC Spotlight: Remembering a True Lancer

Chris Snow '99 - A Legacy of Courage and Inspiration

It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of our dear friend and alumnus, Chris Snow '99. On September 30, 2023, Chris lost his heroic battle with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), surrounded by loved ones.

As the assistant general manager for the Calgary Flames and a former sports reporter for the Boston Globe, Chris was diagnosed with ALS in 2019. Despite this, he remained an incredible source of inspiration by living his life with courage and by throwing the first pitch at a Red Sox game for his 40th birthday. As a member of our alumni community, Chris embodied the spirit of those who go More Beyond and exemplify our motto Plus Ultra, while serving as a powerful source of inspiration and determination. His legacy will continue to inspire current and future generations of our alumni.

Chris was more than just an alumnus; he was an extraordinary soul whose presence touched the lives of everyone he met. During his time with us, Chris was a dedicated student and a friend to many. His infectious enthusiasm, sense of humor, and willingness to lend a helping hand endeared him to all who had the privilege of knowing him.

In the face of ALS, Chris continued to display remarkable strength and grace, becoming an advocate for ALS awareness and research. He used his journey to shed light on the challenges faced by those living with the disease, and in doing so, he became a beacon of hope for countless others.

Chris's memory will forever be cherished within our alumni community, symbolizing the strength found in unity and the power of the human spirit. Our thoughts and condolences go out to his family and loved ones during this difficult time.

As we mourn the loss of a cherished member of our alumni family, let us also celebrate the profound impact Chris Snow had on our lives and the lives of many. His legacy of courage, resilience, and kindness will continue to inspire us all.

Chris left an indelible mark in our hearts and memories, and he will always hold a special place in our hearts.

We love to stay in touch and follow the journey of our amazing alumni and alumnae! We have over 10,000 graduates from Malden Catholic and Girls Catholic and we enjoy creating opportunities for our alumni to return to campus, connect with our current students and reconnect with each other. 

Please share your news with Malden Catholic and photos from your wedding, promotions and accomplishments and we will publish the information in the Malden Catholic Magazine!
