It has already been a year, chock full of challenges and distractions that I’m sure most of us never could have imagined.

One little bright spot, despite that difficulty, we did have some graduates who didn’t get an opportunity to attend a ceremony and celebrate with their families and friends, as they might have otherwise in less turbulent times. After a suggestion from the Social Commission, we decided to post any announcements we receive, to try to help make up a little bit of the difference.

We will continue to add to the post if we receive any more announcements.

Following, congrats to our graduates!

Sam Siner

Owner Janis Siner celebrates her son Sam Siner, who is graduating this summer from Loyola University Chicago with a M.S. in Software Engineering.  He works as Assistant Director of Learning & Student Success at Loyola.  He previously earned a M.S. in Higher Education & Student Affairs from Indiana University Bloomington and a B.S. in Psychology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Timi Ismaila

Unit Owners Mark and Ida Manning want to share a shout out and congratulations for Timi Ismaila, their granddaughter, who just graduated from the 8th Grade in June. You may recognize her as our resident Girl Scout cookie sales extraordinaire! In the photo above on the left, Timi’s Kindergarten graduation photo, and on the right, this years 8th Grade graduation. She’ll be going to high school now, at Von Steuben.
