Read MoreSister Thaddeus was my 8th grade science teacher at OLM back in the 70's. She wasn't easy, but challenged all of us to do our very best! Outside of school, she was very kind and witty. RIP, Sister Thaddeus. I will fondly remember the many stories that came from room 8a.

My brother and sisters also were taught by Sister Thaddeus at OLM in the late 1960's and early 70's. Many family gatherings we talk about grade school and OLM. We have many fond and funny stories of Sister Thaddeus She was by far the teacher that taught us the most because she expected us to do our best. This year like every year our family will come together for Christmas and I and my brother and sisters will reminisce fondly and retell the stories and toast to her. May she rest in peace.

Sister Thaddeus taught me and my brothers and sisters at OLM school in Daly City in the 1970's and 1980's. I also attended St. Rose Academy in San Francisco. I have a lot of very fond memories.
