The Doherty Business Office, given by Jay and Carol LaMarche, parents of Jim ’91 and Matt ’93, pays tribute to long-time Business Manager, Jack Doherty ’62, P’86,’87, GP’17,’25. The LaMarches were first introduced to Jack by their close friends and neighbors, Tom and Carol Connors P'89,’96, GP'20,'24. “The Doherty Family was well regarded in our town and Jack was highly instrumental in our consideration of St. Sebastian’s School for our sons,” noted Jay. “We consider Jack one of the key leaders behind bringing St. Sebastian’s to where it is today, and certainly an MVP. It was our privilege to honor him through our gift to the Spirit & People Campaign.” 

On May 1, the LaMarche and Doherty Families, along with other members of the St. Sebastian’s community, gathered in the rotunda of the West Campus Center to celebrate the dedication of the business office in Jack’s name. The highlight of the special night was a speech delivered by Jack himself focused on the theme, “St. Sebastian’s is family.” The plaque that hangs outside the Doherty Business Office honors Jack for “40 years of eminently distinguished service to St. Sebastian’s School. His intelligence, energy, integrity, diligence, dedication, discretion, and love will be the gold standard for St. Sebastian’s Business Managers of the future.”
