KNIGHTLIGHT Message from the President Dear St. Francis family, B ack in the early 1900’s the Irish Capuchins came to California to share their mission that is uniquely human and deeply spiritual because it requires the friars to be “present.” When St. Francis High School first opened its doors in 1946 as a minor seminary with a handful of day students, that mission permeated the walls and spaces of the former Flintridge Country Club. Now, nearly seventy years later, that spirit of being “present” has not changed. Essential to our Catholic tradition of enriching the mind and heart is the notion that we, the family of St. Francis High School, be present for one another – that we share joy and support in humble ways. I believe as you read and look through the pages of this Knightlight magazine, you will see many examples of how we, as a family and as a community have been present. With our Annual Review, you will see the names of literally hundreds of dear friends – alumni, current parents, parents of graduates, friends and foundations who have made a point of being present and humbly supporting our educational mission. You will see how models of leadership at St. Francis High School have created a legacy – something that we are all part of – something that our very presence, creates a “present” for our young Golden Knights. As we pray for selfless love, peace and forgiveness, we call to mind the simplicity and great wisdom of the Prayer of St. Francis. In this, we hear those sixteen Franciscan virtues that we live each and every day on campus. We see how a life that focuses on being present can have such a profound impact on our very existence. So allow me then, to focus on one specific virtue: gratitude. Let me reflect on the peace and good that is St. Francis High School. Let me say thank you and remember you, my friend, and those you love. You are a gift to us. Our hearts are filled with gratitude and we rejoice in thanksgiving for the blessing of you, dear friend. Cicero once wrote, “A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues.” Know that in our humble, compassionate and prayerful ways, the Capuchin Franciscan Friars celebrate your goodness, your generosity, your prayerful support and your loyal commitment to our mission. We are most thankful – our Golden Knights are forever blessed and truly joyful because of you! You are remembered in our prayers and Masses. Please remember us, and our treasured St. Francis family, in yours. Yours in Jesus and Francis, Fr. Tony Marti, OFM Cap. President ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS WINTER 2015 | 1 Address to the Graduates May 24, 2014 I was having a difficult time deciding what to say today, so I asked my wife for advice. She told me: “Don’t try to be too charming, witty or intellectual. Just be yourself.” Appropriately humbled, I had an uncharacteristic charming, witty, intellectual idea: what better message to give to a St. Francis graduate than “just be yourself?” Recommending that to any group of young men in a different environment might be the worst advice one could offer. But, having observed your development over the past four years, I feel confident in saying that to you. You have grown spiritually, had your minds and hearts enriched, and embraced the concept of brotherhood. While not every one of you has the ability to be an exceptional intellectual, a stellar athlete, or an outstanding artist, each one of you is capable of goodness. Being a good person transcends all socioeconomic lines, ethnic, gender and age groups, and takes no particular talent. As the culminating Franciscan virtue of your careers, goodness embodies all of the other fifteen that were taught. Dennis Prager wrote: “Goodness is about character – integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people.” We have noticed that you manifest your goodness often: in classrooms, on campus, at retreats and Christian Service, on athletic fields and in artistic endeavors. We pray this extends beyond our boundaries. At the end of the day, while it might be nice to be charming, witty or intellectual, it is far more important to be authentically, simply, humbly good. Yet in the world you are headed toward, goodness is not celebrated as much as excellence, so continue your path to goodness by practicing other Franciscan virtues: Humility: As C.S. Lewis reminds us, “Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less.” Integrity: Harvey Mackay said: “If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don’t have integrity, nothing else matters.” Compassion: Albert Schweitzer wrote: “The purpose of human life is to serve, to show compassion and the will to help others.” Service: In his graduation speech “You Are Not Special,” David McCullough stated: “The great and curious truth of the human experience is that selflessness is the best thing you can do for yourself.” Beginning this afternoon, your goodness will not be based on solid color tucked-in polos and Dockers, your grooming, nor your ability to follow our handbook. It will be determined by how well you have integrated Franciscan virtues into your life. As St. Francis professed: “Preach the Gospel, use words if necessary.” A St. Francis graduate’s actions not only define him, but potentially impact and influence others. Those actions will speak louder than your academic pursuits, personal characteristics or temporal achievements, however substantial those may be. So, as you move into the next phase of your life, don’t try to be too charming, witty or intellectual. “Just be yourself.” Do try to be a Golden Knight, a man of virtue, a man of goodness. “Just be yourself.” On behalf of the Board of Directors, our friars, faculty and staff, we send you forth with our love for goodness’ sake. Congratulations Class of 2014! Tom Moran, Principal 2 | WINTER 2015 KNIGHTLIGHT 2014 St. Francis High School would like to congratulate all one hundred and sixty-four graduates and wish them well as they journey onward to do great things.

It is both a testament to the speed with which time progresses as it is a reminder to be appreciative of my experience there. I remember when I was a senior and it was only a few weeks from graduation, I stopped by Trader Joe’s just down the street to buy some snacks. When I walked up to the cashier to pay, the employee looked at my uniform and immediately recognized me as a St. Francis student. I confirmed his suspicions and he began to recount his high school experiences, telling me that those four years were the “best of his life” and he wished he could “go back to the good old days.” I appreciated the story, but as I was on my way home, I began to get anxious. I remember thinking, “What if these are the best years of my life?” I was only two or three weeks from leaving the best years of my ENTIRE life, if that was true... and that really scared me. After a lot of thought and advice-seeking, I came to a new understanding. I need to do everything I can to make every year the best year of my life. I really enjoyed my time at St. Francis and I will always cherish my experience, but THIS year has been the best year of my life. So far, even though this paradigm-shifting experience only occurred two and a half years ago, I have successfully made these years the best by taking every opportunity to grow intellectually, emotionally, as well as spiritually. It’s not to say that I’ve been constantly jubilant and in love with life or that I haven’t messed up and felt terrible, but I have sincerely and actively Nick (far right) with a fellow postulant, sought fulfillment.

I am currently a Second Classman, or junior, and it definitely hasn’t been an ordinary college experience! From the grueling Ratline during my freshman year, to earning a commissioning slot with the Army and serving in leadership positions throughout my later cadetship; my experience at the Institute has been both challenging and fun. My experiences at St. Francis have proven to be invaluable tools in meeting those challenges. The latest challenge I’ve had to face was my Third Class (sophomore) year. It marked a shift from “followership” Lance (right) with his brother, Sean ’14 Roylance Lee Bird ’12 ASB President, Class Officer (2 years), Hall of Fame (4 years), Scholar Award (4 years), NHS Member (2 years), CSF Member (4 years), Latin Honor Society, Retreat Leader, Academic Decathlon (4 years), LINK Leader (2 years), Cross Country (4 years) Captain, Folding at Home (2 years), Frisbee Club, Mock Trial, Mountain Bike Club (2 years), Human Rights Alliance Sophomore year at Pomona College held many great experiences for me. After extensive thought and selfreflection, I decided to change my major from molecular biology to art history. With a new major and a new path, I embraced my second semester, taking only courses in the humanities for the first time ever in my education. With new goals and new trials ahead, I began studying the Italian language in order to better engage in dialogue regarding Italian Baroque and Futurist art to a much greater extent. Part of the process of changing my major also included reevaluating my life goals; the summer research that I performed between my freshmen and sophomore years at Pomona certainly helped me decide that I did not wish to pursue the sciences as a 8 | WINTER 2015 professional career. With an interest in the built environment and art history, I soon turned to architecture as a possible career. Following my interest in architecture, I worked in the main office of a Pasadena architectural firm to develop a better sense of what a career in architecture would be like. In the office, I worked as an administrative and marketing assistant the entire summer, monitoring the office supplies and developing proposals. Fortunately, the firm allowed me to take a two-week vacation in the middle of the summer so I could go to watch my brother, Sean ’14, race his bike in Europe – an experience that I’ll never forget. After a summer’s experience working in an architectural firm, I am still excited about a career in design. However, after taking two art courses this semester, I am more strongly considering majoring in studio art and am more broadly considering a career in product, industrial or environmental design. Throughout the past year, many changes have occurred in my life. However, I could not be more excited about the new direction my life is taking, and I look forward to the coming semesters.

It is hard to believe that I am already a junior studying mathematics and pre-physical therapy at the University of Portland. The first two years of college have absolutely flown by. Last year I had the opportunity of a lifetime – to study abroad in Salzburg, Austria for the entire year. What a blessing! I thoroughly enjoyed my time: I visited fourteen different countries and experienced their unique cultures. Some highlights include attending a few professional soccer games, meeting wonderful people as I toured their homelands, speaking and learning their perspectives, and of course, attempting to navigate public transportation! With this newly-found independence, I grew immensely. During my year abroad, I discovered more about who I am, and what I value most in life – my faith, and KNIGHTLIGHT to leadership and, with that, many responsibilities. Tasks ranging from training the new cadets, or “Rats,” to writing papers on international relations theory and organizing events for my class were now on the table. All of these responsibilities, as well as academics and military duties made for a very challenging Third Class year. Though there were many challenges, it was an exciting time. I managed to earn a contract to commission as a Second Lieutenant in the Army. The contract required evaluations in my physical fitness, academics and military bearing and though it took a lot of hard work, I couldn’t be happier. I plan on commissioning as an Armor Officer after graduating in 2016 and hope to make a career in federal law enforcement afterwards. I also studied in Paris this summer. I studied War & Art in Paris as well as French literature. Paris is a city steeped in history and color and to be able my belief system. Now I am back at campus in Portland. Returning to my major studies and my life in Portland has been both refreshing and difficult. At this point, I have completed all of my general education classes and am now focusing on the upper division to study the city in depth was an invaluable experience. Visiting the city is one thing, but actually understanding it is a whole other thing! The experience of studying abroad, however, was much more valuable than the coursework. I was able to take trips to the D-Day landing sites in Normandy, the Cathedral at Chartres, the Bundeswehr Academy in Germany and then visit Dublin. Studying abroad definitely has been one of the highlights of my college experience. Even after running around in the woods training with the Army and travelling across the globe, I can’t help but think back to my experiences at St. Francis. St. Francis gave me an amazing base from which to build. “To lead is to serve,” and while I am learning new leadership skills at VMI, I remember the lessons in service St. Francis taught me. By keeping those values of selfless service and integrity I learned at St. Francis close, I believe I will become a classes that are required for my major. These classes are challenging to say the least, however, there is nothing more satisfying than working and completing a long, complex math problem. In other words, it is refreshing to be able to work on the studies that I like but also difficult in the sense of the intensity of the classes! Austin Frank ‘12 in Austria ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS I have also gotten reinvolved with the clubs that I enjoyed so much my freshmen year. On campus, I am part of the physical therapy club, club soccer and the FISH club. FISH encourages students to explore and grow in their faith. In addition to these clubs and academics, I was also lucky enough to receive two jobs on campus this semester. I am now working as a teacher’s assistant, as well as a student-athletic training intern. Both of these jobs have been enjoyable so far and Connor (right) with a fellow cadet better officer in the United States Army. All in all, my experience at St. Francis prepared me well to meet the challenges of the Virginia Military Institute and I remain most grateful for my time there. they have kept me busy. My participation in these will help me see what I would like to do in the future. While I remain undecided on a career, two paths that look like a possible fit are teaching or becoming a physical therapist. Hopefully as the year progresses, I will gain a bit more clarity and direction. St. Francis helped lay a sturdy foundation in what has become so vital to my success as a college student. Through the various activities and lived Franciscan virtues at St. Francis, I learned to trust myself, listen to that inner voice and be confident in the direction that I am headed. At the same time, I know I must also put in the work necessary to get to the final destination. St. Francis instilled my work ethic, determination, confidence and faith through the academics offered there as well as opportunities offered through campus ministry. I am so thankful for the entire St. Francis staff and my St. Francis brothers as they helped push me to become someone with integrity, diligence and a strong faith background. I would not be the person I am today without the support of those around me in high school. WINTER 2015 | 9 St. Clare of Assisi Awards One of the many traditions of St. Francis High School is the presentation of the St. Clare of Assisi Award during the Baccalaureate Mass. St. Clare shared a vital part of Francis’ dream and she both supported and enhanced everything that Francis did publicly through her hidden, yet profound life of prayer and community. Family spirit has always been a dynamic part of the Franciscan ideal. In keeping with this, the St. Clare of Assisi Award is presented to parents who have supported and enhanced the Franciscan mission of education at St. Francis High School. This year we have two recipients of this award. Kevin, Christina, Matthew ‘16, Joseph ‘14 and Michael ‘14 Our first recipient is the proud mother of three Golden Knights. Throughout her four years as a St. Francis mom, she has been instrumental in caring for the needs of our school, our students and our family. An active member of the Mothers’ Guild, she served as President during the 2013-2014 school year. During her many years of involvement, she also worked as a dynamic force behind the annual St. Francis Yard Sale. Throughout her tenure, she has supported and enhanced St. Francis High School through her hidden, yet profound, love and care, just as Clare did for Francis. We joined her husband Kevin, along with her sons Joseph ’14, Michael ’14 and Matthew ’16, in thanking and congratulating our first recipient of the St. Clare of Assisi Award, Mrs. Christina Tinglof. 10 | WINTER 2015 Our second recipient has also had a tremendous impact on the St. Francis community during her four years as a St. Francis mother. During her tenure, she has remained steadfast in her commitment to supporting so many of St. Francis High School’s endeavors. She has graced us with her time, talent and treasure, assisting the school’s Booster Club and Theater Arts program. As the Drama Liaison to the Mothers’ Guild, she worked tirelessly behind the scenes to meet the needs of the cast, crew and staff. Always ensuring contributors were properly acknowledged and thanked, she cared for everyone with her enthusiasm and selfless giving. In the true spirit of Francis, she has lived the idea of preaching the gospel at all times, using words when necessary. From performances to fundraisers – from retreats and communion breakfasts to education, this mom has been present and supportive of all that our Golden Knights have accomplished. We joined her husband Habib, and her sons Frederick ’14, and Edward in thanking and congratulating our next recipient of the St. Clare of Assisi Award, Mrs. Toni Balian. Habib, Toni, Frederick ‘14 and Edward KNIGHTLIGHT St. Francis of Assisi Award At this year’s Baccalaureate Mass, we began a new tradition with the presentation of the St. Francis of Assisi Award. Here at St. Francis, we remain committed to living out the teachings of Jesus Christ and Francis of Assisi by enriching the mind and heart, strengthening respect through service and humility, creating a brotherhood and envisioning men of virtue and peace. In keeping with our philosophy, the St. Francis of Assisi Award is presented to a parent who has supported and enhanced our Capuchin Franciscan mission of education by embodying all of the Franciscan virtues and demonstrating our virtues in action to the young men at St. Francis. Our first recipient is the proud father of two Golden Knights. Throughout his six consecutive years as a “St. Francis Dad”, he has made a positive impact on our school, our students and our family. Capturing an opportunity to further enhance the St. Francis experience, he created the St. Francis Mountain Bike Team six years ago and has coached the team ever since. Under his dynamic guidance and direction, the team has achieved great success. More importantly, his mentorship, compassion and enthusiasm have transformed a fledgling athletic team into a close-knit family that emphasizes integrity, service, brotherhood and prayer. A consummate teacher, this man strives to help our Golden Knights grow and improve both on and off the course. We joined his wife Pat, along with his sons, Lance ’12 and Sean ’14, in thanking and congratulating our very first recipient of the St. Francis of Assisi Award, Mr. Lee Bird.

FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS WINTER 2015 | 11 Models of Leadership Pete Brang Legacy. There are a few meanings to consider. Let’s look at this: Legacy is something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past. Often times, when you begin a journey, you aren’t thinking about creating a legacy. But maybe you should be. One might argue that great leaders, those who we regard as “models of leadership”, inherently think about legacy as they begin a new journey. These leaders are exceptional in the ways they tend to their mission. They are always “Mission Possible” and operate a highly effective mission. Consider our legacy at St. Francis High School – what is “it” that is transmitted through our history? That “it” is undoubtedly something quite valuable. It is also something intangible. When we take our thoughts back to 1946, we remember a new beginning with the dark days of war behind. This was when the late Fr. Stephen Murtaugh, OFM Cap. acquired the property and buildings of the Flintridge Country Club in La Cañada with the intention of Fr. Cyril (middle) and Jack Friedman (right) 12 | WINTER 2015 founding a minor seminary for aspirants to the Capuchin Franciscan Order. The late Most Reverend John H. Cantwell asked that day students be admitted in addition to the seminarians because of the lack of Catholic schools in the area. 1946 was a pivotal year then, for the Capuchins, who took their Order mission and applied it directly to their newest ministry. The mission of these friars was and remains, “to be a joyful presence of hope and salvation to all, especially to those most in need.” At St. Francis High School, those most in need were and continue to be the young men who fill our classrooms with energy and question, enthusiasm and uncertainty – and leave our hillside campus as gentlemen of virtue. You see over time, a specific mission was dedicated to this sacred ground – A Catholic tradition of enriching the mind and heart. So many Capuchin leaders – Fr. Valerian, Fr. Emilian, Fr. Enda, Fr. Cyril, and Fr. Lawrence, and those who followed, held fast to this mission. In those sixty-eight years, our leaders have created and maintained a safe and nurturing educational environment where the qualities of our Founding Father, St. Francis, can best be absorbed. Since those first days, we look to instill a value system – where our Golden Knights use their God given gifts for good. A healthy tension, as one wise friar put it, exists between goodness and excellence. Excellence is a goal-oriented, secular value. Goodness is a God-like virtue that brings happiness, peace and a sense of self satisfaction. Inherent in our legacy is the understanding that the value of goodness must not be diminished for excellence. The original group of 25 students has grown to a current student population of 600 young men. And while our leaders have strived for mission effectiveness, one might borrow current Principal Mr. Tom Moran’s words, that we have not declared, “Mission Accomplished”. To do so, would terminate our legacy. It would signal the end of our journey when there is still so much more to do. Sure, we saw tremendous physical accomplishments during Fr. Matt’s leadership – our campus was literally transformed with a new parking structure, Degheri Performing Arts Center, FieldTurf, all-weather track, FieldHouse, Norman Family Courtyard and classroom renovations. Fr. Tony, our current President oversaw the addition of a new classroom wing KNIGHTLIGHT over the gymnasium and launch of our technology initiative that will bring 1:1 learning to St. Francis. How was all of this possible – we would argue it is because of our St. Francis legacy. It is, as Tom Moran put it so appropriately during our August Liturgy to wish Fr. Matt well and welcome Fr. Tony as our new President, because of our Mount Rushmore. “The real Mount Rushmore of St. Francis includes Fr. Enda, Fr. Cyril and Fr. Lawrence – they are the giants upon whose shoulders our staff members stand today.” And on that sunny, hot August morning, one would add that Fr. Matt would also be on our Mount Rushmore because no one would rush more to get things done right, to exemplify Franciscan values, to preach the Gospel and use words if necessary, to pray for our needs, to be an instrument of peace and an example of humility. At the beginning of our school year, we learned long-time teacher, coach, administrator, friend and leader, Pete Brang would retire in June. You can’t help but think of our Mount Rushmore once again. In his many roles, Pete has lived our mission to enrich the mind and heart so effectively. He has demonstrated in both words and action, how a man can live like Francis. He embodies and embraces those sixteen Franciscan virtues we teach our young gentlemen during the course of their four years at St. Francis. So, yes our Mount Rushmore looks a little different than what you see in South Dakota and one might argue, it’s getting a little crowded, but remember, we are truly unique. Our Mount Rushmore then, must be truly unique. After all, we are St. Francis High School and we have a legacy of enriching the mind and heart to uphold. Close your eyes and reflect back. Think of September 1971 – it seems like yesterday doesn’t it? You may remember it well – Frank Robinson hit his 500th homerun, John Lennon released his “Imagine” album and both Chris Evert and Jimmy Connors won their first U.S. Open match and the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts opened in Washington DC. These were some highlights set in a contentious time as the Vietnam War raged on. In our own history, St. Francis had its highlight with the hire of a young gentleman, Peter “Pete” Brang, an accomplished runner and graduate of University of Nebraska. He was Fr. Lawrence’s choice over two alumni candidates because Pete could fulfill two needs for St. Francis – he would teach history and he would coach our cross country and track programs. To this day, Pete remembers what Fr. Lawrence told him when he was hired, “Social Studies teachers are a dime a dozen – but good ones are hard to find.” Not the most reassuring way to start your first job out of college for sure, but it did motivate and focus a young man who had grown accustomed to pushing beyond perceived limits, to do the extraordinary. Keep in mind, Pete garnered some rather impressive results in his time at Nebraska – including a 49.2 400m, 1:50 800m, 4:02 mile and 8:59 2-mile. Talk about quick. Talk about versatile. Talk about loyal to a mission. What Pete remembers most about those days – his roommate beating him in the mile with a 3:59. Don’t you wish you could “bottle” that competitive fire? Pete decided to teach only because his first love – coaching – would be possible only if he could get himself in a school setting. Inherently, he knew that to be a good coach, he would need to be a good educator. That would be the difference. And that’s what he set his mind to. He applied ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS all that he had learned running and in the classroom to his career as an educator and a coach. He committed himself daily to being a part of an integral team that would implement the mission of St. Francis High School each and every day. And just like he learned from running cross country, there are no time-outs. It’s you and the clock. In high school, there are only four years to make a difference. Four years for boys to become fine young gentlemen. Four years that can set our graduates apart. Pete believes that our Golden Knights set themselves apart as gentlemen – as good husbands, good fathers and good members of our community. There is goodness – a sincerity, honesty and moral integrity – that makes a Golden Knight recognizable. While Pete was quick to point out there are other schools that do this, he wanted to be a part of the team that made this goodness happen at St. Francis High School. Many times, Pete was challenged with addressing that healthy tension between goodness and excellence and sought to find just the right balance. One of his favorite cross country memories dates back to the early 80’s. St. Francis was racing powerhouse St. John Bosco at Oak Grove Park. One of our top runners, Michael Whitehead ’83 stopped during the race to check on another runner who went down during the run. He helped the fallen runner get WINTER 2015 | 13 back up and get back in the race. Pete remembers offering this “real world” advice, “You’ve got to first finish the race – then go back and check!” To this day, Pete remembers fondly a Golden Knight who extols the Franciscan virtues. One of the recent highlights of Pete’s career was when he and his wife Sherry travelled with our student pilgrims, St. Francis staff and Fr. Tony Marti, OFM Cap. to Rome and Assisi. He will always remember Easter Mass in the St. Francis Basilica, with the body of St. Francis over the altar – very powerful, deeply spiritual, and a daily reminder to model Francis. Pete Brang and I started coaching and teaching at St. Francis in the early 70’s. I remember well when he started. I taught P.E. and coached football and basketball - he taught social studies and coached cross country and track. Pete helped me when he agreed to be the official scorer or timer for basketball games. He also agreed to help with whatever he could during a “B” team football game. In return, I promised to keep a stop watch or run a field event for him during track. I would often kid him about how easy it was to coach cross country, knowing full well it was not easy. I’d say, “Just tell them to meet you at the top of a hill somewhere and don’t forget to lean forward when you run up hill and lean back when you run down the hill.” If only it were that simple. Over the years, Pete and I became good friends and took many camping vacations together with our families. Pete’s oldest, Karen was usually the ring leader as our kids planned camp fire shows, hikes etc. To this day, we talk about the fun we had during that time. The KAIROS retreat program evolved during Pete’s time at St. Francis – thanks in a large part to another colleague and leader, Mrs. Donna Huckaby. Kairos is a Greek word translated as, “the right or opportune moment – the supreme moment”. In his role, as a faculty presenter at a KAIROS retreat in the early 90’s, Pete used an analogy, “We are his hands.” Naturally he traced this back to a history lesson where Americans were tenacious in a World War II battle in 1944 in a small town in Italy. There was a statue of the sacred heart in the town plaza – it had been bombed and lay shattered on the ground. The soldiers were inevitably ordered to “move out” and on their last day, they tried to put the statue back When Pete became the Dean of Discipline he worked hard to gain the respect of the students. It didn’t take long for students to learn that you didn’t mess with Mr. Brang. In my mind, one of the most impressive things about Pete was his ability to be tough in his role as the disciplinarian yet at the same time, be fair and be sure the students knew he was fair. I’d say in most cases they knew they deserved the punishment they received.Who could possibly remain in that role for close to 40 years and still have a smile on his face every day? I’m sure the thousands of students he has touched understand the significant role Pete played in transitioning them from boys to fine St. Francis men. I left St. Francis over 30 years ago and the hardest part was leaving my friends at St. Francis. Pete and the other leaders who have stayed for so many years have carried on with the values we all learned during our time at St. Francis. I believe in my heart, as the new guard comes onboard over the next several years, they will “tap into” the wisdom and experience of Pete and others like Tom Moran, Jim O’Connor, Terry Terrazone ‘65, Rudy Trujillo and of course, the Capuchin Franciscan Friars. Our tradition will certainly continue – a tradition of building fine St. Francis men in the image of St. Francis. God bless you Pete as you move into the next phase of your life.Thank you for your friendship and great memories. Don’t forget to lean forward when you’re running up hill. Brian Fogarty ‘68 14 | WINTER 2015 together for the people of the town. When they got everything together, the soldiers noticed the hands were missing – the hands were beyond repair. One of the soldiers put a sign on the statue which read, “You are my hands.” Pete asked the students to always remember that God works through us. We are His hands. KNIGHTLIGHT GHT- Coach Pete Brang is a good friend of mine. We have shared a lot of good times together. Whether it be running, fishing, backpacking or camping I have always enjoyed his company. I have gotten to know him well through the years, My earliest memory is in 1972 when my oldest brother Chris was a freshman at St. Francis High School. He had just recently been hired as the Dean of Students. I got to know him, and decided that he would be “a very, very good mentor for me”. He proved to be this without any doubt. Congratulations Pete Brang on 43 years of service to St. Francis High School! A warmest thank you! Sincerely, Pat Mitchell ‘84 Friends who are “newer” to our St. Francis community may not remember that Mr. Brang was the Cross Country Coach for years and won a few league titles. As a member of some of those teams, I can tell you that you never really knew what practice would be like until he came out from his office and sent us out for our run. We had runs that went on every horse trail in La Cañada - to this day, I’m amazed no one ever got lost.The only way you knew where to go was to keep up. We never really got directions. All the runs had a name and there were certain runs that we absolutely hated to hear like: “Meet me at the towers.” – This referred to the towers you can see from the Glendale Freeway. It seemed like we were never going to stop running those hills. “Warm up on the bridal path.Then meet me on the track.” – Translation: we were going to run quarter mile repeats on the track.Among cross country runners, these were better known as “killer quarters”. It was not uncommon to do ten of them, each with a specific and ambitious time goal. No further explanation is necessary. “Mt. Brown, see you in a few hours.” – You don’t even have to ask why we hated this one. “Lida.” – This run takes you the back way to FSHA. And yes, we would run up St. Katherine Drive. “Meet me on Crown.” – We would run the hill from just before the country club over and over. “Meet me at Arbor.” – This was a street in Pasadena past the bridge where we would run another hill over and over. Coach Brang’s key phrase,“Meet me” made us all nervous. Many people get credit for using the phrase,“When the going gets tough, the tough get going.” Mr. Brang liked that phrase and he liked it a lot. He used that phrase if anyone complained about the workout while he spun a stopwatch on his two fingers like an airplane propeller. Another thing I remember about Coach Brang was that he didn’t yell when you did something wrong. He would bring you in his office and talk to you in a calm voice, and tell you how disappointed he was because of your actions.To this day, I would rather be yelled at than have a conversation like that. I understand “Saturdays” are now a thing of the past. I think many alumni will never forget how Mr. Brang made his way around campus every Thursday with the Saturday Detention slips. He would walk in with these slips and the classroom would be dead quiet as every student waited to see if he was getting a slip. I think Mr. Brang used to enjoy calling a name out, have a student turn pale and say something like “have a nice day” or “how is it going.” So many memories. Coach Brang certainly made a lasting impression – one that makes me laugh out loud today. More importantly, he clearly made a difference and greatly influenced my four years at St. Francis. Tim Mosicki ’82 ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS WINTER 2015 | 15 As he contemplates leaving St. Francis this spring, Pete believes he will continue to be our Lord’s hands. He has an understanding that time is a precious gift – his father is 97 and his mom, at 90, is battling stage four cancer. He and his bride Sherry have been married for 44 years. His daughter Karen is married to a Squadron Commander in the Air Force and blessed with six children. They are a true Catholic, military family – one that has relocated often. Pete’s son Jeff is a real estate broker, police I had the great honor and privilege to run cross country and track for four years (1981-84) for Coach Brang as well as have him as my U.S. History teacher. I say great “honor and privilege” and not great “pleasure”. Running for Coach Brang was not “fun” in the traditional sense. It was hard, painful work.We began training for cross country in the hot, smoggy August weather both in the morning and the afternoon. Traditionally, our first practice of the year included running Mt. Brown (14 miles) in the morning followed by Linda Vista-La Loma run (12 miles) in the afternoon. Coach Brang ensured we had an incentive to train on our own prior to the official practices. The practices did not get any easier after the first day. I can honestly say that in no other time of my life have I subjected myself to more physical misery as I did for Coach Brang, and for him I did it for four years. Why did I do it? I am not a gifted runner. I never lettered varsity. I never won a race. A good running week for me was when I did not earn “The Burger With Everything On It” title for being the slowest person on the team that week. I did not love running or subjecting myself to the agony of “Killer Quarters” and other equally painful workouts. I hated giving up soft drinks which Coach Brang required. I hated getting up early to practice before school. During the course of the day, I felt myself dreading the agony of the upcoming afternoon workout. On race days, I felt a special fear – not just the fear of the upcoming 3-mile sprint but the fear of letting myself and my team down by not doing my absolute best. officer and father to three children. Relationships have been and always will be key to Pete’s life. These are an essential ingredient to enriching the mind and heart. So as our dedicated, genuine, humble, loyal Vice Principal and Dean of Students, our Pete Brang, passes the baton to John Jordan, who will officially take over these roles, he offers these words of wisdom. “Consider each child’s environment – there are multiple dimensions to each child. Consider the whole picture – not just the picture you might see of a child sitting at a classroom desk.” And to Pete, we wish you the very best life has to offer. Stay true to your heart. Be His hands. Celebrate those relationships. Always remember your time at St. Francis. Continue to live our legacy because you are forever part of it. Know that so many are truly grateful for the difference you made in their life and those priceless, intangible gifts that you generously shared with hundreds of Golden Knights and their families over the years. God bless. Initially I ran for Coach Brang because when I came to St. Francis I wanted to belong and thought fitting in required being on a sports team. Since my lack of athletic ability was not confined to a single sport but spanned all athletic endeavors, distance running seemed a good alternative. I may be slow but I knew I could finish, and in distance running finishing is an accomplishment. And Coach Brang made running for him A BIG DEAL. We may not have gotten the glory the football team received, but each of us runners knew that we were part of something special. Over the thousands of miles we ran together, we bonded. We knew we were doing something very hard and we were doing it for a man who demanded we give it our best.And when we didn’t, we heard about it. During one practice my senior year, we ran to the Rose Bowl as a warm-up and then did wind sprints. I dogged the run to the Rose Bowl taking my time. I didn’t see the purpose in killing myself to get to the Rose Bowl only to kill myself some more – especially since I had no chance to place in the upcoming race. I was a senior who had given my all for four years and felt entitled to take a break. After practice Coach Brang pulled me aside and told me he was disappointed in me. It was bad enough that I cheated myself by not doing my best, but I set a bad example for the underclassmen. He was right and I knew it. Even a “Burger With Everything On It” has a responsibility to the team. In the beginning, I ran to belong, but overtime my motivation changed. I ran because I owed it to the team and to myself. Running was hard, hard work. Painful, painful work. Few people had the fortitude to make themselves run the distances we ran. We knew we were special not because of accolades – no cheerleaders ever attended a meet – but because we knew we were pushing ourselves to a degree that few people did. Even a “Burger With Everything On It” knew it and took pride in it. I still run to this day.Thank you Coach Brang. Ed Renwick ‘84 16 | WINTER 2015 KNIGHTLIGHT Franciscan Chrome - An Unforgettable Golden Knight Graces Friedman Field The Knight Sculpture that now towers over Friedman Field was originally produced by artist, Sean Guerrero, in 1989. Guerrero is famous for his largerthan-life chrome sculptures. The SFHS sculpture, like much of his work, is made entirely of recycled chrome bumpers from the 50’s and 60’s. Guerrero indicated our sculpture was commissioned by Sy Weintraub, who was a well-known Hollywood figure. There seem to be no details on how or why the sculpture was abandoned, but somehow it ended up behind a warehouse in the City of Industry. Perhaps, it was just our fortune to be found. The sculpture was first discovered by a St. Francis Alumnus in 2010. I have clear and positive memories of Coach Brang during my distance running years at St. Francis High School, 1972-1974. As a coach, Pete had an energetic “tough love” style which inspired personal excellence through hard work and discipline while instilling a strong sense of team in all of us. Coach Brang was both a caring mentor and a motivator, even as Dean of Discipline, where he kept us in line and out of trouble – most of the time! He had a quick sense of humor and was clever, once convincing our cross-country team to run an extra-tough weekend workout by hosting a pancake breakfast at his home. I can tell you, it worked! Above all, Pete was always interested and present when he was with you – Pete was the most influential person in my years at St. Francis. Jim Emme ‘74 One of the things I remember most about my time with Pete (calling him Mr. Brang is hard to lose) is that we, his cross country team, often called him “Dad.” I don’t know if he ever knew about that.We called him “Dad” for all the reasons we love our dads. Although he had to play the role of disciplinarian as Dean of Students, we were able to see the other side of this man coaching a sport he truly loved. We were able to see Pete during our years running Cross Country, away from school and the strict role of Dean. Although he placed goals and demands on us, just like dads do to make us better people and develop into men, Pete did it in encouraging and caring ways. I believe he was proud of our accomplishments and believed in us as runners and young men. He opened his home to us on many occasions. He planned extra activities and events for us, like the “Fun Run” up Tujunga Canyon followed by a pancake breakfast. Pete was someone we went to for advice. We wanted to do our best and honor him in that way. Like a proud father, I remember him pointing out his name on the record board at Mt. Sac prior to a meet. Pete was truly dad to a few team members whose fathers were absent and he is someone I will always remember. It took three years to convince the former owners of the sculpture to part with it. The original sculpture had a griffin on its shield and the horse was a unicorn. Local artists and metal fabricators were retained to transform the sculpture into a piece worthy of representing our school’s mascot – our beloved Golden Knight. The piece was structurally and internally improved, hammered copper was added to the shield and saddle, the school’s logo was added, and the unicorn horn removed. Finally, the sculpture, our Franciscan Chrome, was polished completely by hand. The sculpture was donated to St. Francis and the installation took place on September 4, 2014. The energy on campus the day of installation was absolutely amazing. There were many moments which made the four-year long process seem well worth the significant effort. The sculpture was donated by the Young and McGoldrick families, who have had more than a dozen St. Francis graduates over five decades with still more to come. For them, the sculpture is not only an amazing work of art, but also represents the strength and resilience of the Golden Knights: we can be humble and strong at the same time. SFHS has a long and storied tradition on Friedman Field over which the sculpture now stands. Our hope is for all who see the sculpture to either remember or come to appreciate our rich tradition that is St. Francis High School. Dave Miller ‘80 ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS WINTER 2015 | 17 Living our Mission – Faculty Profile: Jim O’Connor You know the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” Time and time again, this simple pearl of wisdom has beaten the odds, and proven, this adage is true. One might apply this to the life lesson we all learned last year in a classroom at St. Francis High School. Jim O’Connor, an algebra and calculus teacher, with a reputation for being strict, direct and demanding taught us all a thing or two about humility, compassion and service. One might say O’Connor developed the “hard” exterior his students know having grown up in New York and having served in the Navy during the Vietnam War where he did electrical work on an aircraft carrier. Before becoming a teacher, O’Connor worked as an electrician in the Lincoln and Holland tunnels. When Pat McGoldrick ’14 was charged with leading the student blood drive at St. Francis, he did some research. He wanted to get the full story – he wanted to see with his own eyes, where the blood would go and get a sense of who the beneficiaries might be. To his surprise, he also uncovered a 20-year mission. When Pat went to Children’s Hospital, he couldn’t understand why when he told someone affiliated with Children’s Hospital, that he was a student at St. Francis High School, they asked him if he knew Jim O’Connor. And then they would follow up with, “Isn’t he wonderful?” That wasn’t the first word that came to mind when Pat thought of a math teacher who ran a tight ship in his classroom. What Pat uncovered was an example of Franciscan humility, compassion and service at its finest. You see, for the past twenty years, Jim O’Connor has been donating blood and platelets at Children’s Hospital. In fact, he has donated more than seventy-two gallons of blood and platelets since he first gave blood back in 1989. CHLA estimates the value of his life-saving gift – over $500,000 if the hospital had purchased the blood and platelets. His name is at the top of a plaque that honors exceptional blood donors at the hospital. He is their top donor by a large margin. And there’s more – Jim O’Connor volunteers three times a week cuddling sick babies. He steps in when parents can’t – to hold, feed and comfort their children. Why does he do this? “I don’t want to see them alone. You can’t do that.” 2015 Cardinal’s Awards We are delighted to share the Archdiocese of Los Angeles was also touched by the humble and compassionate service of Jim O’Connor. He was selected as a 2015 Cardinal’s Awards Recipient. The event will be held March 21, 2015 at the J.W. Marriott at LA Live. 18 | WINTER 2015 So maybe we’ve got Jim O’Connor’s cover all wrong. Maybe he’s not so tough after all. We do know, now more than ever before, he models St. Francis and those Franciscan virtues we all hold dear, in ways that make our humble hearts, incredibly proud. KNIGHTLIGHT St. Francis Alumni Association Letter from the President Dear Fellow Alums and Friends of St. Francis, What a great time to be a Golden Knight! The 2014-2015 school year is well underway and St. Francis High School is thriving. The Golden Knight Football Team was undefeated and secured an Angelus League Championship and deep run in the CIF Playoffs. Our students continue to be leaders in the classroom and in our community.

Barron ‘58 Webster defines “achievement” as “something that has been done through effort; a result of hard work.” Often times we hear the word “achievement” and begin to make assumptions about the scale and nature. Perhaps society guides us, for better or worse, to make these assumptions. Francis of Assisi once challenged his brothers, “Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.” Our 2014 Distinguished Alumnus brought new light to both these ideas. After a relatively “ordinary” four years at St. Francis High School, Tom Barron graduated in the spring of 1958 and enrolled at Pasadena City College. It was a short time later that he gained admission to Santa Clara University, where he studied finance, graduated, and went to work as a CPA for what is now commonly referred to in public accounting as Deloitte. After seven years in public accounting, he was asked to join Transcon Lines as their controller. He continued to work hard and rose through the ranks to Senior Vice President of Finance. Tom’s next, and last, professional endeavor would be with the Flying Tigers, the first scheduled cargo airline in the United States. There he assumed the role of Chief Financial Officer. He would stay with the Flying Tigers until their purchase by FedEx in 1989, which prompted his retirement. Thus ended one chapter of achievement for him, but unbeknownst to him, would begin a whole new chapter in his life. It was shortly after his retirement that Tom began to apply his professional skills for the benefit of others. He was asked to work for Fr. Bud Kieser and Paulist Productions as their treasurer. This company went on to produce many powerful Catholic television programs and films. Additionally, as a trustee, Tom lent his expertise to Marymount High School, where his daughters attended. He helped raise important funds to carry on the mission of Catholic education in the West Los Angeles area. Through his involvement and dedication to supporting Catholic education, it was perfectly fitting that he be asked by Cardinal Mahony to serve as treasurer for the Catholic Education Foundation in 2004. CEF’s primary mission is to ensure that a Catholic education remains a reality for many of the underprivileged youth, primarily in the inner city areas of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. More important is that 98% of these students stay on track and continue on at the college level. Beginning in 2010, Tom answered the call to serve as President of the Board of Trustees. Under his direction, the Catholic Education Foundation grew its endowment from $100 million to $160 ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL | ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENT NEWS million. During his last year as president, the foundation awarded over $14 million in scholarships to over 8,000 students. Tom will reiterate that, among its many trustees who serve and generate much of its revenue, there is not one who wants or needs any glory. Through their collective example, we come to understand what Francis said when he proclaimed, “It is in giving that we receive.” Tom achieved great things for himself and his family, but in answering perhaps a greater call, his “achievement” for others stands up as an extraordinary measure of what happens when one begins simply by doing what is necessary, and then suddenly what seemed impossible, became possible. It was our pleasure to welcome Tom back to St. Francis, with his family and many classmates and friends by his side. We are privileged for the gift that he is to us, and certainly to those young men and women who have continued to benefit from a Catholic education as a result of his hard work. It was a true honor to present the Distinguished Alumnus Award for 2014 to Mr. Thomas H. Barron ’58. WINTER 2015 | 23 HALL OF FAME SFHS Inducts Five into the Athletic Hall of Fame Mr. Ernest Cruz Jr. Ernie Cruz entered St. Francis High School as a freshman in the fall of 1958. Ernie’s two sons graduated from St. Francis – Ernie III in 1991 and Chris in 1994. His daughter Angela is a 1998 graduate of Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy. Ernie attended Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa and was drafted into the army in 1967. He dutifully served in the Vietnam War as a member of the 101st Airborne Division. Ernie has been involved in hospitality and service all his life, a trait he learned early from his parents. The Cruz family owned and operated Ernie’s Taco House for over 70 years. From 1992 until 1998, Ernie was a director at Journey House, an organization that offers support services for emancipated foster youth. He has also volunteered as a board member of the US Naval Submarine support group for the USS Pasadena, and has been involved with the Pasadena Tournament of Roses since 2002. Since his boys were students at St. Francis, Ernie has been a dedicated servant to the high school in many ways. 24 | WINTER 2015 Under the tutelage of Fr. Lawrence Caruso, the family sponsored approximately 550 football banquet meals and 350 staff lunches over the years. For the past twenty-six years, instead of enjoying the atmosphere of Friedman Field with friends and family, Ernie continues on the opposite side of the field, chairing the “chain gang” during football games. Ernie has touched thousands of lives with his soft, gentle demeanor, and his generous heart. We are so grateful for the friendship with which we have been gifted, for the many years of service and support to our athletic department, and were so pleased to induct into this year’s Hall of Fame, a true Golden Knight, Mr. Ernest Cruz. Mr. Dennis Harper ‘56 This Golden Knight found his way into leadership positions early and often at our then very young, six-year-old St. Francis High School. A three-year varsity letterman, Dennis was also busy in other disciplines He was a member of the Third Order, a lay Franciscan service club, and was also co-editor of the Knight Breeze, the student newspaper. In addition to holding the role of Student Body President, Dennis was a standout on the gridiron. He received First Team All Catholic Conference honors at fullback in both his junior and senior campaigns, and helped take the Knights to our first ever CIF Playoff contest. He played at Pasadena City College following his four years at St. Francis, and then came back home to assist legendary Coach Jack Friedman for three years. Dennis and his wife, Susan have four children, and reside here in town. After serving dutifully as a member of the United States Marine Corps, Dennis graduated from the University of California at Santa Barbara, and he enjoyed a prosperous career in the insurance industry here in his hometown of La Cañada. We were honored to induct into this year’s Hall of Fame, Mr. Dennis Harper ‘56. Dr. Tim Samuelson ‘63 Every once in a while, St. Francis is blessed with a young man who enters its ranks, and achieves truly remarkable success on a variety of levels. Tim is one of those Golden Knights. Tim entered his freshman year KNIGHTLIGHT in the fall of 1959 and quickly invested himself as a Golden Knight. From the Honor Roll, to the California Scholastic Federation, to Student Council, to athletics – things that Tim dedicated himself to each of his four years, he emerged as a leader. Throughout his time at St. Francis, Tim lived out the Code of the Golden Knight in all that he did. Tim earned a total of seven varsity letters during his tenure. He was a three-year letterman in baseball. Two years he helped the Varsity Knights on the basketball court, earning team captain honors as a senior. Finally, he lettered in both his junior and senior seasons in football, earning All Conference honors on both sides of the ball. St. Francis honored him with our Athlete of the Year award in his senior year. After graduating, Tim was pre-med at Stanford University, and went on to USC to become a doctor. He served the area of Anchorage, Alaska for 30 years as an emergency room M.D. His accomplishments are extraordinary, but as was written about him some fifty years ago, Tim never wanted personal triumph at the expense of another, for the team was always first. We were truly blessed and honored to welcome Dr. Tim Samuelson ‘63 home, a true team player, and wish to congratulate, as a member of this year’s Hall of Fame. of Golden Knight by his coaching staff. Bruce was selected to the competitive All Del Rey League First Team during his senior season, where he helped the Knights capture the league crown. In addition to leading the relay team and long jump, he was league champion in both the 120 high hurdles as well as the 180 low hurdles events. For his efforts he was awarded Most Valuable Runner Honors, and received a scholarship to the Air Force Academy, where he continued to shatter records, until injury forced him to retire. He eventually received his degree from the University of Massachusetts. Bruce currently resides in the Phoenix area, and we were thrilled to have him make the trip back to St. Francis so that he could receive this well-deserved honor in person. Mr. Robert Sheedy ‘67 & Mr. Tim Sheedy ‘67 Some say that twins are nearly inseparable, and in this case, it seems the appropriate thing to do to induct them together. This is not because they are twins – as individuals, they are equally deserving of the honor bestowed. Tim and Robert were both three-year starters for the Golden Knights’ Varsity Football. They led by example and everyone who played with, or against, them admired them for their toughness. Scrappy and relentless, often going up against players who outweighed them by 50 to 100 pounds, they never conceded an inch. No one played with a bigger motor or a bigger heart than these two brothers. Both earned starting positions as sophomores, Tim at safety and Robert on the line. Tim and Robert each faced season-ending injuries this year, but their early work helped propel the Knights to a 13-0 record, a league championship, and its second consecutive CIF championship. In their junior year the duo earned starting spots again, and contributed on both sides of the ball. As seniors, Tim and Robert were two-way starters, Tim as a tight-end and cornerback, and Robert as an offensive lineman and linebacker. Both were bestowed All League honors and gratefully acknowledged for their leadership by their coaches, and named Golden Knights. Tim and Robert were selected to play in various post season All Star games. The brothers traveled together, once again, to the University of Arizona on football scholarships, and played in the Sun Bowl during their sophomore season. Since that time, both have returned to the area, become successful businessmen in their respective trades, and continue to stay close with family. We remain most grateful for their continued friendship, and enjoyed having so many members of the Sheedy clan at our Hall of Fame game to pay tribute to Tim and Robert. Mr. Bruce Pope ‘72 As the 1972 Sportsman of the Year section of the Alvernian Yearbook stated, “One of the finest leaders ever to be given this honor, Bruce Pope instilled the pride, determination and desire to win that were necessary to become champions.” This alum was another all-around success on and off the field. A strong student, Bruce earned Honor Roll all four years, and was a member of the National Honor Society as a junior and senior. He was also a member of the Student Council for three years. On the field, Bruce excelled in both football and track and field. He was a two-way starter at running back for the Knights, and earned the respect of his teammates, coaches and the league. Bruce was named team captain, and was also given the prestigious honor ST.
