About The Teacher

  Mrs. Garner started teaching at St. Teresa School in 1968.  She got 
married to a wonderful man named Charlie in 1976.  They have one son named 
Jimmy, who is working for the United Nation in Vienna, Austria. 

  Mrs. Garner has her Master's Degree in Elementary Education from Xavier
University, and an Advanced Certificate to teach Religion.  Her favorite
subjects to teach are Religion and Math.  She went to Vienna to visit her son
in the summer of 2006. She also went to the General Audience in Rome, and 
shook Pope Benedict's hand.

     Last year, Father Bolte picked me to represent the teachers from  
St.Teresa School for the Twinning Project in the Philippines. It was a great 
opportunity for my husband and I to travel.  We saw little children eating 
trash from a garbage dump.  We went on a retreat with Bishop Tagle from the 
Philippines. The people at St. Teresa of Avila Parish in Talisay City lined 
the streets and welcomed us.   Some of the  adults sang a song and danced for 
us.  It was a wonderful experience! Please pray for us, and the people in the 
Philippines.  Thank you!
