My beautiful daughter Kayde,
Congratulations on receiving the John and Mary Jo Shaughnessy Legacy Scholarship! Seeing your hard work, kindness, faith, and determination recognized makes me so proud. You continue to show what it means to lead with love, compassion, and strength.
The words shared about you being respectful, hardworking, a leader, and a โray of sunshineโ # perfectly describe the amazing young woman you are becoming. Your willingness to help others and make people feel safe and welcome speaks volumes about your heart and character.
Being baptized this Easter and earning this honor in the same year is such a beautiful blessing and reflection of your growth spiritually, academically, and personally. Continue to believe in yourself, stay focused, and keep shining your light everywhere you go.
You deserve every bit of this recognition, and I cannot wait to see all the incredible things your future holds.
I love you endlessly and am beyond proud of you. Congratulations again, scholar! ๐
