BUFFALO ACADEMY OF THE SACRED HEART Annual Report 2022-2023 20 Jacqueline Shea Wopperer ’52 and her husband, George, worked together to build a successful family business and a loving family including five sons and four daughters (Patricia Wopperer-Olin ’77, Jackie Wopperer Stoj ’79, Julianne Wopperer Thompson ’80, and Suzanne Wopperer ’80.) After Jackie passed away in 2016, her children agreed that they would honor her by committing to Sacred Heart’s events going forward. Jackie’s son, Anton, shared, “My mom loved being associated with Sacred Heart. Our family is committed to attending events and being an active part of the community, just as she was.” RIBCO, Inc. is a commercial and industrial roofing company, founded by George and Jackie and now led by Anton and George, Jr. RIBCO has proudly been the first corporate sponsor to commit to our Sandstone Dinner Auction each year. Golfers at the Sister Maria Pares Golf Tournament have seen RIBCO, Inc. signs at the tournament for more than a decade. Their corporate commitment is as enduring as their family’s involvement, year after year. Anton continues, “We know that donating is important, but for our family, it is about more than that. It is about engaging with the Sacred Heart community, which has given our family so much. This is a way for us to bring people together to celebrate our parents’ legacy.” Sr. Maria Pares, OSF ’58 Golf Tournament and Luncheon Ahrens Financial Group Michael and Barbara Burns Cara Henning Camardo ’92 Matthew Conron Deborah Greene Cercone ’78 Susan Reiser Daniels ’92 Kevin Deakin Mike Deakin Marybeth Flanagan Doherty ’79 Carrie Fahey, ChFC, CFP Kevin and Julie (Casimino ’87) Flanagan Susan Fortunato ’79 David and Carrie Frank Troy and Heather Gibson Margaret Buchanan Johnson ’73 Patricia-Anne Calvaneso Lacomb ’73 Lu Engineers Manzella Marketing Group, Inc.
