In Memoriam
For two wonderful years, Betty became more and more involved in parish activities and teaching religious education. She said, “It was then that I realized that God was calling me, not only to the Catholic faith, but also to religious life.”
One former student commented, “Sister Margaret Ann inspired me to be a better reader and to speak properly at all times. She always had these really funny sayings that have stayed with me over the years.”
Sister Estelle died at Notre Dame Convent, Waterdown, Canada, on March 7, 2020, 17 days after her 104th birthday. She was in her 83rd year as a SSND.

-BLESSED THERESA GERHARDINGER
