“Happily for our age and country, her piety is not of a stern and forbidding character, but rather an attractive blending of a sensible, practical attention to workaday affairs with a deep and restful insight into the meaning of the interior life. An exponent and advocate of a sound business administration as well as of a sane and cheerful view of life, she had nevertheless a seraphic love of Christ's image in her fellow-man, and a mystic's penchant for the delights of prayer. Happy is the convent whose inmates meditate on, and imitate, such a life.”
