Fr Kevin celebrates his 90th Birthday

D

espite being in lockdown, it didn’t stop us sharing a very special day with the monastic community on 12th January 2021 who were celebrating Fr Kevin Taggart’s 90th birthday. The day began with the arrival of a group ecard in his inbox signed by over 250 Old Worthians with some wonderful messages, this in addition to the many hundreds of cards and gifts that arrived at the Monastery. Fr Kevin’s usual glance of the morning papers also had an element of surprise when he spotted a birthday notice to him in The Times courtesy of the Worth Society. The School had organised a delicious cake for morning coffee time and the monks sat down to a celebratory meal that evening with wines provided by several alumni and a large chocolate and biscuit hamper given by the Society. A huge thank you again to all of those who helped make it such a special day for him.
