Dear lifelong friend of Sr. Ellen Bernadette

Faith spent her life always taking care of others. She showed great strength, devotion, spiritual faith and was immensely proud of her children and grandchildren. Her life, similar to a book, brought chapters of pure joy but also the heartbreaks with the loss of family members. Her strength was always present during those times and she moved forward with the lessons of each life experience. Faith enjoyed cooking for family, reading & listening to music. During her spare time, she put pen to paper with lengthy letters keeping friends and family afar updated on all the recent news. During Faiths brief illness, she was finally the beneficiary of her lifelong care of others. During this time, she received an outpouring of love, support and care from her adoring family and dearest friends. Our joys will be greater, our love will be deeper, and our life will be fuller because we shared your moment.

The celebration of life will be a private event for close family and friends and the family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Faiths charity of choice, The Salvation Army.
