Ours was and is a very Catholic Family on both sides. There was always a connection with the Catholic Order of Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet as evidenced by Sr. Elise Foley, and Sister Clarine Seibel, and by the devotion to various priests and nuns over the years. These pages are dedicated to these close friends of the family. I cannot tell you how many times our house saw after meal blessings by priests, or in the last years of mom's life - blessings on her and those around her, including a special Mass by Father Harry Schlitt.
