My deepest sympathies go out to the family of Sr. Jean. I was a first grade student at Sacred Heart School in 1972 and unfortunately I do not recall her.
I must say that to this day I am grateful for having been a student at Sacred Heart for the love and guidance that all of the Sisters and lay teachers gave us students.
May God be with you Sister Jean.
