Jennings mourns death of Sister Margaret Mary

We are deeply saddened to announce that Sr. Margaret Mary Grochowski passed away early this morning. She was the final living Sister of the Holy Spirit. Click here for funeral arrangements. When Sister passed away, we were able to honor her with our tradition of the angel procession at the hospital. She would have been pleased.

Sr. Margaret Mary will forever be remembered for her loving and lively spirit. She was generous of her time and generous of herself in terms of Christ and His church, particularly with those who resided at Jennings over the years. She entered the order in 1942, the same year as Jennings was established. Over the years she had served as the director of nursing and in life enrichment at Jennings before retiring and becoming a volunteer. She was a gift to all who knew her and all for whom she prayed. We thank God for the years we had with her.

We celebrate her life, the legacy of the Sisters and their founding of Jennings and serving for nearly 80 years. Please keep the family of Sister Margaret Mary and the Jennings family in your prayers. She will be missed.
