What we all share is the desire to climb, to rise upon the foundation built underneath us by everyone in this audience.” We are all moving up, and moving on. None of us, however, is on quite the same flight of stairs. What we all share is the desire to climb... Guest Speaker Rev. John Schlegel S.J. then addressed the graduates, “While at Marmion you were urged to determine those non-negotiable values and principles upon which you will forge your personal and professional life. Rooted in Benedictine spirituality and tradition, you balance prayer and work, generosity and hospitality, richness in service and being crafters of a peaceful society. To live and act accordingly is to Respect Your Future. To do that is to Respect Yourself.” Academic Dean Julie Garofalo announced that 77% of the graduates were awarded scholarships and grants totaling a record $16.4 million.

Peter Enderlin Writing Competition Two distinguished Marmion alumni, COL John Fenzel ‘80 and COL (Ret.) David Fitz-Enz ‘58 have recently published novels. Eighteen students were selected to have their work published in the English department’s annual Father Peter Enderlin OSB Writing Competition Literary Magazine. All students were eligible to submit manuscripts to the competition in the categories of Poetry, Fiction and Essay. In COL John Fenzel’s The Lazarus Covenant, he navigates the darkest recesses of the human condition. From a gut wrenching mass execution witnessed by two young boys to the discovery of a secret nuclear weapons laboratory the story is a thriller. Fenzel draws on his experience in the White House, in the Pentagon’s “E-Ring,” and in crises spots abroad. Those experiences animate his story in a way Tom Clancy never could: from the Oval Office in Washington DC to the Hall of Apparitions in Medjugorje, COL John Fenzel ‘80 recentBosnia, The Lazarus Covenant stands ly published his novel “The alone as a compelling portrait of how Lazarus Covenant.” today’s crises are managed...truly managed. Fenzel is an Army Special Forces Officer, commanding an Army brigade at Fort Knox KY. For more information about his novel, visit: www.JohnFenzel.com. COL David Fitz-Enz ‘58 speaks with Fr. Charles Reichenbacher OSB ‘59, director of development, as he signs a copy of all four of his books for Marmion’s Decio Library. Redcoats’ Revenge, The alternaR ttive history of the War of 1812 is COL David Fitz-Enz ‘58 ffourth publication. A review by Dick Roberts, VP of Marb keting, Sony Picture Televik ssion states, “Fitz-Enz draws you into the intricate mosay ics of life, warfare, equipic ment, travel and especially m the character of men like th Davy Crockett, Sam HousD tton, The Duke of Wellington, aand most intimately, Andrew JJackson. The let-down that JJackson feels in these written lines translates like a movie li sscene in the reader’s ‘theater of the mind’. Who knew? If events had followed this similar path we might, today, be sipping a lot more Twinings’ Tea than Coca-Cola.” Ftiz-Enz is now vice-president of Cannonade Filmworks, and co-producer and writer of the television program “The Final Invasion” for PBS. He is published in “Military Illustrated” magazine of London, and guest lecturer at the British Army Museum. Fitz-Enz wrote his memoir of Vietnam, Why A Soldier for Random House. His book, The Final Invasion won the Distinguished Writing Prize from The Army Historical Foundation and the Military Order of Saint Louis for contributions to military literature from the Knights Templar. His presentation of his third book, Old Ironsides, Eagle of the Sea, was covered by C-Span Book TV from the National Archives, Washington DC.

West and Dr. Ann West Mrs. Alice White Campaign MARMION Campaign Marmion: Honoring the Past by Shaping the Future has surpassed $20 million toward its goal of $25 million. The Endowment Fund has increased by $4 million (mainly for student financial aid), the Annual Fund has raised $4.6 million for on-going operations, and $5.2 million has been spent for infrastructure work and new playing fields that have changed the face of the campus. An additional $5.3 million is committed for the renovation of the science labs and the construction of the new Regole Field House. This summer Marmion begins work on another priority of Campaign Marmion–the renovation of the second floor of Yender Hall (classroom building) into modern biology, chemistry and physic labs and science lecture rooms. Government mandated asbestos removal took place this summer and next summer the new labs and lecture rooms will be constructed. The key to this plan for the new science facilities is flexibility, that is, the multiple use of these labs and rooms for a variety of science courses and independent study. A creative use of computer electronics for virtual instruction and experiments is essential. When completed the entire second floor of Yender Hall will be devoted to science instruction, a 25% increase in space. The estimated cost for construction and furnishings is $2.6 million. To date $1.9 has been raised. The future Regole Field House, named for major benefactors Gertrude and Maurice Regole, Sr., will be built as soon as more gift funds can be raised. To date $3.5 million is committed toward this $5.5 million project. The twenty-six member Campaign Steering Committee, chaired by John Cibulskis ’70, Ray Dalton and Reed O’Malley ’56, has worked for four years to help the monks and faculty of Marmion fulfill its mission: a Catholic-Benedictine college preparatory school for young men, dedicated to spiritual formation, academic excellence and leadership development. Campaign Marmion is now in its public phase. Over 150 alumni and parent volunteers are now seeking a wider level of participation. The final general solicitation phase is scheduled for 2010. Campaign Marmion will end December 31, 2010. For more information on any of the projects of Campaign Marmion, contact Fr.

Charles Reichenbachers OSB ‘59 Director of Development Endowment funds, that is, investments whose earnings only are used, are essential for the long-term health of religious and educational institutions like Marmion Abbey (and its Guatemala mission priory) and Marmion Academy. This is why an Endowment goal of $5.2 million for Campaign Marmion is a priority. To date over $4 million has been raised for the endowment, mainly for student financial assistance and Benedictine seminary and advanced education for the monks. The Abbey receives income from the labors of its monks and the Academy from tuition charges, but both of these are never enough. The tuition for the school year 2008-2009 was $8,800, but the actual per student cost was over $11,000. Without a significant endowment income Marmion has to operate with the uncertainties of annual giving and the “free labor” of the contributed services of the monks. Marmion Academy’s Endowment for Academic Excellence was valued at $9.5 million as of June 30, 2008. It suffered a 17% loss in the last fiscal year. As of June 30, 2009 it stood at $7.8 million. Although not pleased with a 17% loss, it is a better record then many investment funds that lost 25% or more of their value. In 2008-2009 the Academy’s endowment contributed $418,423 26 to the operational budget, using a 4.5% draw-down, based on a three-year rolling average. The endowment is projected to contribute $287,538 in 2009-2010, with a 3% draw-down. Golden Reunion Gift Jack Gallagher ’59 of Joliet made a gift of $50,000 to the Academy in honor of his class’ 50th Reunion. $25,000 established a Veterans’ Memorial JROTC Endowment Fund in honor of all Marmion alumni veterans of the Armed Forces. The Fund will help support the operations of the Academy’s military department. The other $25,000 went to the Student Emergency Financial Aid Fund to help deserving students finish their Marmion education when their parents are challenged by economic Jack Gallagher ‘59 made a hardship. gift in honor of the 50th Reunion of his class. Gallagher retired after 43 years of military and local government service.

Recently, Marmion realized another demonstration of this through a bequest of more than $132,000 from the estate of Dorothy Blassage Artlip of Aurora. Fr. Terence offered the funeral Mass for her husband +Edward who had been a business manager at Mooseheart Child City and School. A nephew, Jerry Blassage ‘60 recalled, “Fr. Terence had grown up in the same neighborhood as Ed. He did a lot to personalize the ceremony and Dorothy was very pleased.” After her husband’s death, Dorothy continued her relationship with Marmion by occasionally attending Mass at the Abbey Church. In addition to a nephew, Dorothy’s brother, +Bernard Blassage, was a 1932 graduate of the former Fox Valley Catholic High School for Boys (which was renamed Marmion the following year). Bernard is believed to be the first Marmion alumnus killed in World War II and is memorialized on the plaque of Marmion Alumni Veterans Deceased. Dorothy was a graduate of the former Madonna High School. She was a registered nurse and worked at Mercy Hospital and also in private practice with Dr. Eugene Balthazar. She made a number of generous bequests to Catholic schools and organizations. From Bainbridge WA Marmion was also the designated beneficiary of a bequest from the Estate of John O. Daly ‘50 of Bainbridge Island WA. John and his brother, +James ‘49, were born and raised in Katchikan AK. A graduate of Washington University, John served in the U.S. Army (1954-57) and later in reserve duty with the Alaska National Guard (1958-63). In 1965 John became President and General Manager of Ketchikan Spruce Mills (KSM), the third generation of the Daly family to lead the mill. It was sold to Georgia Pacific. He later served as Senior Vice President of Kodiak Lumber Mills in Anchorage. John was active in political and civic affairs in Alaska.
