The February 21st edition of the Montgomery Gazette features an article on the 10th Anniversary of the founding of the Culkin School.

However, there is one not-so-small error in the story -- to quote Mark Twain, "The report of my death was an exaggeration." As the Culkin School Family knows, Sean's mother is not deceased and is alive and well despite the reporter's "exaggeration."  You'll be able to see her (and joke about the article) at our upcoming shows this St. Patrick's season!
