Whenever I think of my days at Ursuline I remember Sister Regina (Mother Stanislaus). She was Principal of the Junior school when I was there and she was always very nice and kind to everyone. I will never forget her.

I first met Sister Regina In 1991 as a music teacher at Ursuline Academy -- Wilmington, Delaware ..
We became fast friends from then on -- she loved to come down to the music room and watch the children sing and play instruments --
Such a gentle kind lady -- my wife and I loved her and spent many hours together --
God rest her soul
