Read MoreSr. Marie Bedard was my high school French teacher at Holy Name. A phrase we learned very early on was "ne crache pas" (do not spit), whereupon she leaped from her desk and spit on the floor. Every time I hear French spoken, I think of her and the phrase that has kept me laughing for years. Merci, Soeur Bedard.

I think Sister would have liked this:
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up...
