There are 10 of them, hung from the brick walls that help shield the school from the hustle and bustle of Shelbyville Road in an area officially called Alumni Courtyard. Each is adorned with the likeness of a Trinity House namesake. They weigh approximately 50 pounds apiece and are placed in alphabetical order. They are a series of bronze plaques created by Louisville artist Mr. Bob Lockhart. Lockhart, father of Trinity teacher Ms. Cory Lockhart and graduate Shawn Lockhart, is also the artist responsible for the Trinity statue in front of Alumni Hall and a 2001 co-recipient of the Trinity Peace Medal (with his wife, Dottie). “They’re not placed haphazardly,” Trinity Chaplain Fr. Dave Zettel said. “But the project isn’t completely finished yet.” Trinity President Dr. Rob Mullen said that there will be further additions to the courtyard, including landscaping work, installation of lights to accentuate the bronze pieces, and a Marian statue. “We’re glad to have the plaques,” Zettel said. “As an extension of the House System, they’ve really made it real.” Students also agree. Said junior Jude Zoeller: “I think they’re a lovely addition to the school.” Mullen said, “They’ve really helped to institutionalize the House System even deeper. They’re a visual reminder.” John and Jean Ribar, grandparents of Trinity seniors Thomas and Matt Ribar, are the donors who contributed the necessary funds to carry out the project. Mullen said, “(When) I approached them, I explained to them what we were doing, and they were enthusiastic to fund.” A plaque in honor of the donors, including the late Mr. John Ribar, will be placed in the courtyard upon completion of the project
