Although he’s retired after a long and successful career with the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District, Ron Rojo ’72 stays very busy as a member of the CB Alumni Association Board (he recently served as chair for the Alumni Dinner) and helping his wife, Lori, with her newly opened bakery, Sugar Mama’s in Carmichael. The bakery, which opened in October, specializes in everything from cookies to wedding cakes and even glutenfree treats. Sugar Mama’s even provided the tasty desserts for the Alumni Dinner. Rojo is also busy keeping up with his daughter, Brittany Rojo ’11, and her recent swimming success (see the alumni update regarding Brittany (on page 38). CB’s Director of Admissions, Kenny Kirrene ’78, has been named Santa Claran of the Year by the Santa Clara University Sacramento Alumni Chapter. The award will be presented at a special dinner in May.
Dan Schiele ’80 enjoyed a brief stint as acting police chief for the City of Sacramento while the department underwent a search to hire a chief. Schiele, who currently holds the rank of deputy chief, plans to retire in May.
Enjoying Term on County Board of Supervisors Phil Serna ’86, a self-described “shy kid” in high school, has definitely
come out of his shell as a member of the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors. Although he lost his first election, that of junior class president, Serna takes his role on the non-partisan board very seriously. Elected in June 2010, Serna represents District 1 which extends from the Sacramento-Sutter County line throughout 96 percent of the City of Sacramento. Serna credits his father, former Sacramento mayor, professor and activist Joe Serna, Jr., and his stepmother, Isabel, with instilling in him the importance of helping others. Isabel was also instrumental in Joe’s decision to attend Christian Brothers High School. “My stepmother was an activist like my father,” says Serna. “She pushed the hardest for me to go to Catholic high school because it was important to her that I obtain the best available secondary education. And, she was right. Looking back, I’m really grateful to Joe Gill ’63 and Br. Dan Morgan, FSC, for introducing me to great literature and helping me develop a love of reading. That was essential through my college years and stays with me today.” Story Continued Following Page
