Sr. Pauline Therese was my 2nd grade teacher in 1960/61 at Ascension Elementary School in Los Angeles. She taught us cursive, addition, subtraction, division, and so much more. Skills, and knowledge that we take for granted now as adults. She instilled in us a love for God, our families, and our country. She prepared us to receive our first Holy Communion that spring! She was a loving, focused, and fully committed servant of God. I know she is looking at his face… in awe, in praise, happy and at peace in heaven. Thank you Sister for all you did for me.
