We love you Sister Marie! You have been a constant staple of the Brummer family for many years, we will miss you dearly.

The Good Lord will certainly be catching up on His latin now--no more sloppy declensions of those verbs! May God hold you ever close by His side. Thank you from your former student at SFA...Mary Lynch Marler 1959-63.

Sr. Marie (Sr. Euphemia to me) was my Latin teacher at SFA for 4 years, from 1963-1967. Her love of Latin and Roman culture was inspiring. I am so glad I was able to celebrate her 90th birthday with her last year. Requiescat in pace, Sister.

Lighting this candle to honor the life and legacy of Sister Marie. She was truly magnificent and will be missed by all.

Thank you Sr. Marie for all you taught me and for your service to God.
