In Memoriam

Help us remember our Sisters by sharing a story about a Sister who touched your life, or making a gift in their honor.

Serving 52 unbroken years of service in schools as teacher, principal, coordinator of pre-K/primary grades, and Assistant Superintendent of Schools in five states - Maryland, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida, Corinne was loved and appreciated wherever she was.
In 1978 she moved to Thunder Bay, where she took an addiction counseling course which qualified her as an addiction counselor at St. Joseph Treatment Centre in North Bay.
In 1983, Sister Clara directed occupational therapy activities at Villa Assumpta, then became director of the Hobby Room. There she engaged the Sisters in activities designed for each one according to her talents.

In death, we say our ultimate human yes to God. Trusting in God’s power to bring us to the fullness of life, we conclude our earthly life with an act of worship: in the action of death we proclaim God as God, and ourselves as God’s creatures. We are called by God and sent by the community; we go in joy!
