Not sure what to say?

She was a wonderful caring human being. The world is a much sadder place without her.

Ther are no words to express my sadness when it comes to Sister Ludmilla's death. She was truly a Saint here on earth. A dedicated Nun for 73 years, blessed with many, many talents. I had the pleasure of volunteering for her in the Religious Education Program at Our Lady of the River, then taking over the program when she went to St Anthony's. I can only say these were some "BIG SHOES TO TRY AND FILL." She BLESSED my life and my family with many, many years of friendship. May you rest in...

She made the best little fruitcakes ever!

She was a saint!! I brought many donations to her at Christmas and Easter and she was so gracious and grateful!

So saddened by this news. We are thankful and grateful for the blessing of Sr Ludmilla. She spent her lifetime showing us how to love God and love one another. God bless her and all her loved ones.

Thanks to a great and gracious God for giving us this saint in our midst. May flights of angels sing her to her well-deserved rest.

I am deeply Saddened by this news. I actually thought Sister Ludmilla had passed some time ago. She was one of the Best Person's I ever knew. I spoke at a " Roast" for her. She had a Miner Accident on the icey road. I told everyone Sister didn't realize in actual life she couldn't say "Jesus Take the Wheel". I also remember Father Conroy had made some snacks for his dog Bingo. Sister didn't realize they were for Bingo, and she "Ate the Dog Food Snacks". I taught CCD for 13 years for her....

How blessed we were to have her live and work among us. Bless you, Sister. It was a privilege.
