Albany-- After 32 years of service at St. Teresa's School, Principal Grace Ledwitch is retiring.

At a retirement party, friends and co-workers gave hugs and warm greetings to the woman who became a staple of the school. She's touched many since beginning her career at St. Teresa's in 1973.

"It's been wonderful, wonderful, wonderful experience, the best years of my life. I guess you can say I was married to St. Teresa's," says Ledwitch.

Ledwitch began her career as a teacher at the school. She's been prinicipal for eight years. Her last day will be June 30th but she says she'll always be involved with the school in some way.

She will now take time to visit her three children and her seven grandchildren.
