She had great knowledge of Music and was an accomplished Musician especially on the Organ and was able to use this gift throughout her Religious life. Sister did her Nursing Training with me and she was a very dedicated and caring nurse. Unfortunately the stresses of Religious life were too great for Sister, she left the Order and was happily Married and did great work with the disabled children whom she cared for. Josefa passed away some years ago always grateful for the training she was given as A Sister of Compassion. She kept in touch each Christmas. Sister Cecilia Scanlon
