Sister Jean touched countless lives with her faith, kindness, and devotion to service. Her joyful spirit and lifelong commitment to education and community uplifted all who knew her.

Sister Jean, God Speed and bless you for your wondeful service to God, Loyola University Chicago, and all of the students, faculty and friends you have touched over the past years. You are a heroine and a friend to many at Loyola University Chicago especially the mens' basketball team praying with them before every game. You have inspired so many people just by your very presence and knowing the genuine person you were.
Your book, Wake up with Purpose, is a testimony to the giving and thoughtful person you were.
We will miss you.
Mary Ann Noonan (former School of Nursing Facuty and friend.

I am not of Catholic Faith, but this young I really enjoyed seeing her during the playoffs. That smile could light up a room. An inspiration to hundreds of people. May she rest in peace. We will see that smile again someday.
