Before there was Corryville Catholic, there was St. George School. That's where I first met Sister Jean. At the time my last name was Trammell. She was my principal when I was hired to teach second grade in 1976-1978. Sister Jean always had that warm smile on her face. She was always congenial, encouraging, and supportive. Throughout the years she educated generations of families. I remember fondly being invited to her home on Vine Street which she shared with some of the other nuns who also taught at St. George. They had cooked a delicious taco dinner from scratch. It was delicious . My sincerest condolences to her family and Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.
