Not sure what to say?

I was so sad to hear of the passing of my very best friend for 80 years. Janice ans I had a relationship no matter where we were. I loved J anice and will always think of her in my prayers at night. She was also my Maid of Honor when I married 64 years ago. God Bless you Janice and rest in peace.

Sister Baptiste was an enthusiastic teacher who made Physics understandable and fun. In addition to having Sister B as my Bishop Ludden physics teacher, I also had the good fortune many years later to see her often at St. Joseph´s Hospital. May You be at Peace,Sister

A Letter to an Astounding and Godly Lady Dear Sister Baptiste, It is with a heavy heart that I learned of your passing through one of my brothers. It feels like just yesterday we reconnected at my 50th. It was such a joy to see you again and catch up. You were always so genuinely curious about what was happening in my life, a trait that remained constant through all our years of communication. You held such an important place in my life. Like so many of your other students, I can honestly...

Sister B was one of my favorite teachers at Bishop Ludden High. Her Physics classes were always well-prepared, interesting and fun! She encouraged me on the path toward an Engineering degree, and I really appreciated the foundational skills she imparted to us in class.

Sister Baptiste was my high school physics teacher at Bishop Ludden. It takes a very rare person who could make physics understandable and enjoyable - all while exemplifying the true traits of Catholicism to a group of rowdy high school girls. We all loved her. She was remarkable and is in God´s care now. Godspeed dear Sister Baptiste.

So very sad to hear of Bap's passing. She was such a beautiful person and a very devoted religious. She was my physics teacher at Bishop Ludden High School and I was lucky enough to have her as my sponser in religious life. I loved her dearly. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

God bless Sr. Baptiste. I was fortunate to have had her as a teacher while I was a student at Bishop Ludden. Sister was such a wonderful person. She was an excellent teacher, always kind, and always cared about her students and our success. I was fortunate to have known her. Prayers for Sister, her family and all her friends.

Sister Baptiste was one of my teachers at Ludden. She was patient, kind and fun. Rest in Peace, Sister
