Nancy was fashioned after me, and the nuns were fashioned after the nuns I taught with and under throughout my teaching career. Sister Mary Edwina was fashioned after a nun my daughters had in school and whom I taught under. Her name was Sister Mary DeChantel. I learned a great deal from her, and every time I see a butterfly or roses, I think of her. There were even roses and butterflies at her funeral recently.A lot of the experiences in this book happened to my family and me and are still very vivid in my memory. I thought you might enjoy them.
