“When I hear St. Francis' prayer "Make me a channel of your peace" I always think of Sr. Maureen Clare who lived her life praying to be just that, and in so doing she inspired all of us who knew her to do likewise. "O Master grant that I may never seek, so much to be consoled as to console". May she rest in Peace.” - Fran McFarlane (nee Shim)
