Sr. Mary Louise Brennan SSJ

Oh my Mary Lou, I am so sorry, I never knew you passed away. No one in this area to let me know. I just went looking and found your obituary. RIP my dear friend. We were friends for many many years. I will treasure the card and note you sent to me last Christmas.

What warm memories I have of the time we "shared" a house in Holyoke, she on the first floor and me living on the second. She took great delight in the garden I planted, loved the flowers and the birds. Im so happy we were able to include her in "family" events and share good food and stories. Her friendship was a great gift.

Sr. Mary Lou It has been many years since I have seen you. You had my children at Holy Cross and were an amazingly kind and gentle teacher who they needed at the time. Thank you Sr.Mary Lou

Sr. Mary Louise will be missed by many. Always enjoyed spending time with her in Narragansett and discussing our love of books and politics

Sister Mary Lou was one of the nicest human I have ever met as well as a great teacher who inspired her students. I was fortunate to have had her during my last 2 years at Blessed Sacrament School in Holyoke. Thank you Sr Mary Lou

Mary Lou, I am so sorry that you are gone. I enjoyed our talks at HMC. I´m bringing you Italian food every Monday. I´m really going to miss you. Peace be with you. I will be praying for you. Love always, Anne Scibelli

I would take sister Mary to her oncology appointment every morning at Holyoke hospital she was so caring we would have the best conversations about life every morning. She would always make my mornings amazing seeing her. She will always be missed and loved

Sr. Mary Lou had such a love for literature and writing as my teacher at Blessed Sacrament. She was very inspiring. She encouraged me to keep improving my writing skills. Later, Sr. became my colleague at Holy Cross and I watched her inspire my students with that same love of writing. Sr. Mary Lou wil be greatly missed.
