I believe her ability to laugh and make others smile kept her and the people around her going. She was also a deeply spiritual woman who had a great devotion to the Blessed Virgin. |
She was very dedicated and had a positive influence on thousands of children and their parents. As a teacher and principal she set high academic standards and ran a pretty tight ship. She expected people to do the best that they could. But there was always an underlying kindness and love in everything she did. |
Sister Mary George was very proud to be a Franciscan, and she always prayed that she would have a peaceful, happy death. For her passing to come on the feast day of the Stigmata of St. Francis has a great deal of meaning for us. |
