My mother, Mary Louise (McManus) Jones, went to Marion College with her friend who became Sister Carmen. Sister Carmen is my namesake. The letters we wrote to each other over the years hold a place in my heart. Rest in peace. You were greatly loved.
In memory of my favorite Spanish teacher who still inspires me to this very day- almost 40 years later. Nada te turbeNada te espanteTodo se pasaDios no se mudaLa paciencia todo lo alcanza.Quien a Dios tiene nada le falta.Solo Dios Basta!This prayer written lovingly and decorated with rose pictures, still sits in the original frame on my bedroom dresser: de Sr. CarmenI know that she will be deeply missed by those she has touched along the way, including me.(Mary) Veronica SpieglScecina Memorial 1976
