Sr. Kevin taught second grade to many children at AGO!
In her later years she taught music to many children at several parishes on the north side!! I remember her telling me about one time she was so embarrassed, cuz she was teaching at so many places each week that she showed up at the wrong school one time!!!
In 1999 when we all were getting back together after our first reunion at the Motherhouse, Sr. Lucy told me that Sr. Kevin was in the choir of St. Bart’s parish where I was going to Mass each week! I wanted to find her, but I kept forgetting about it and I wasn’t sure exactly what she would look like….it had been a FEW years….So on Holy Thursday, when she led the choir in some litany, I wondered if that was her singing, until I heard the addition of 🎶”St. Kevin”🎵… and everybody else chimed in….
🎶Pray for us🎵!!!! I knew that HAD to be her!!!! I went up to her and she looked at me and said…. “Wiley..Right?” And I said..”How you’d know”? And she said “Lucy told me you’d be looking for me!!!” I said “I knew it had to be you cuz in all the litany’s we sang at AGO, there never was a St. Kevin!!!!” And she said..”Yeah I thought I’d throw him in there”!!! Pretty funny!!!
