Staci Blanchard ‘87 got married to Bruce Aldrich ‘78 in Costa Rica in June.

So proud of our daughter, Isabella ’21. After visiting a few cities where she saw and fell in love with murals beautifying the landscape, at 16 she wanted the same for our Hamlet.  So, she presented the idea to Mayor Kessler and the Board, worked on designs and got it approved last summer.  She was soon off to college, but she and Mayor Kessler kept in touch throughout the year to ensure it would happen, and this summer she went to work on her first ever outside mural. 

Thanks to Mayor Kessler and the Board that had faith in Isabella.  Thanks to Isabella for adding another layer of beauty to Bexley.   And selfishly, thanks to Isabella for the reminder of her while studying up in Ann Arbor, every time I head through the Giant Eagle Marketplace/Bexley City Hall parking lot. 

Hope you enjoy it as well.
