Not sure what to say?

My favorite teacher with that wonderful gleam in her eyes... I am so sorry I did not express my gratitude for your wonderful teaching and example in my younger life. I look forward to doing that God willing when we meet again when God's kingdom comes and His will is done on earth as it is in heaven... When there is peace and perfect health. I still remember all the beautiful songs you taught us at Cluny in Newport-- especially "Ireland I Love You"..which I still sing for my mother. I loved...

Sister was my first grade teacher in 1952-1953.She remained my friend for the past 60 years. I will miss her

I guess going through school I must have been one Sr. Laetitia's favorite students because she sure used to whip me, Albert and Frankie into shape, and all for the better I might add for me as the years went by. I used to talk to her on the phone on my way home from work many of days. I think the last contact I had with her was about 4 years ago with the birth of our daughter. I'll never forget the lunch we had together with Kathy and actually getting to know her personally. I take with me...

Thank you for being in my life. You were my greatest and most positive role model while at St. Catherine's. Your love, passion and guidance help shape my childhood. Rest well and thank you for being in all our lives.

I will always have happy memories of choir practice with Sister Laetitia, and the joy she brought to peoples lives.

I have many fond memories of the Cluny sisters especially Sr. Laetitia. She always greeted me after long absences with the angelic smile of hers and made you feel like a long lost family member seeing you for the first time.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Sister Laetitia was the joy in my childhood. I often spent recess singing with her by the piano. She taught me music and she holds a special place in my heart. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who loved her.

Heartfelt condolences to her Cluny Sisters, and caregivers at Jeanne Jugan Residence. Her light lives on, in those she taught and loved...

RIP My dear Maura.

I had Sister Laetitia in first grade which was way back in 1956 at St Catherine Laboure school. I never forgot her and as a first grader I thought she was strict. But I always liked her and kept her in my nightly prayers. I'm happy she had such a long happy life. May you rest in peace and I hope to meet you again in Heaven.
