Comments: Good Afternoon Everyone Below is a message sent to the AASH National Board from Kathleen Simon, our southern regional director. Please continue to keep those who have lost so much due to the devastation of the recent storms and hurricane IKE in your prayers. Remember, we ar Missionaries of the Heart and must continue to carry on the committment of St. Philippine to help those in need whenever possible.
UPDATE ON IKE I have just returned from a Board meeting at the Rosary where of course our concern was focused on our schools in the path of IKE - Grand Coteau and Duchesne in Houston. Our headmaster Dr. Tim Burns has been in text contact with his contemporaries as both schools and it appears that we have avoided catastrophic damages to both campuses. We have offered to assist in any way we can from students to housing; from monetary help to hands on help - we will let you know what the needs are for these two schools. Certainly at the Rosary we have walked a mile in their "pumps" and are forever grateful for the entire Sacred Heart Family. Our prayers go out to all of those effected in Galveston/Houston area and Southwest Louisiana. Sister Muriel Cameron has learned that Grand Coteau has "lots" of tree damage and roof damage to the assembly room and other areas of the building. The damage is said to be significant enough that it is "not something the father's club can fix". The Grand Coteau website is password protected for parents so I could not get the latest official scoop - but will keep you posted. I can do a little better for Houston - Posted on the Duchesne website - as follows: IKE NEWS UPDATE
Comments: Please pray for all the people that are having to stay in their homes as hurricaine Ike hits, keep them safe.

Comments: Patricia Klafehn; Cancer Patients' Liaison By Joe Holley Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, June 9, 2008; B06 Patricia Delaney Klafehn, 65, the associate director for the Cancer Liaison Program at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, died June 2 of acute leukemia at Washington Hospital Center. While at the FDA, she developed the agency's first program to educate the public about cancer drugs in development so the views of cancer survivors could be included in the process. She gave speeches, conducted workshops, wrote articles and produced brochures to help patients and their families decode the language of cancer research. She also trained FDA staff members to be more clear and direct in their communication with patients and their families. Hers was the voice of experience. In the early 1980s, she went from doctor to doctor with symptoms of itching, fatigue and pain in her arms and legs. Every doctor she visited told her there was nothing wrong, that her problems were largely psychological and probably due to early menopause. Five years after the strange and debilitating symptoms appeared, she found a lump near her collarbone. Doctors then diagnosed her with advanced Hodgkin's disease, a cancer of the lymphatic system. "Years of persistent and changing symptoms and no diagnosis, I feel, is inexcusable," Mrs. Klafehn wrote in a 1988 article for The Washington Post. "There is no doubt in my mind that the doctors decided early on that I was just another hormonal female with itching problems, and one doctor's view fed another and it went on and on." Numerous letters to The Post in response to the article, as well as calls and letters to Mrs. Klafehn, suggested that she was not alone in her feeling that many doctors treat women differently than men. Because of that bias, she wrote, women "must be extra strong, tough and self-assured as they fight to explain how they feel." Mrs. Klafehn also wrote about the need for doctors to communicate with their patients. "We're not asking doctors to remove our fears, just to admit that we have them and talk with us about them," she wrote in The Post a few weeks after her diagnosis. "That in itself would help relieve our anxiety." Mrs. Klafehn was born in Chicago and received her undergraduate degree from Barat College in Lake Forest, Ill., in 1967. She moved to Washington that same year. She began her federal career in the Head Start program, developing comprehensive services for low-income children of Native Americans and migrant farm workers. In 1972, she became president and chief executive of Family Health Care, which delivered on-site management technical assistance to hundreds of National Heath Service Corps practices across the country. She also worked for the Bureau of AIDS in the Department of Health and Human Services, where she built a communications system for informing and supporting organizations that applied for grants from the bureau's Ryan White program. She also developed the surgeon general's program to promote organ donation and to publicly acknowledge organ donors. As a member of the White House Task Force on Health Care Reform, she analyzed the impact of managed competition on underserved and low-income groups. Her work at the FDA began about the same time of her diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease, which was treated successfully in a clinical trial at the National Cancer Institute. She served on the Public Liaison and Patient Advisory committees of the NIH, the Clinical Trials Working Group for the National Breast Cancer Action Plan, the Clinical Trials Advisory Committee of the Society for the Advancement of Women's Health Research and other health-related organizations. "It's easy to understand how passionate she was," said her friend Suellen Keiner, "because she had experienced it herself, and she knew how hard it was not to know what the treatments are." Mrs. Klafehn's husband, Douglas Klafehn, a former deputy associate commissioner of Head Start, died of multiple myeloma in 2006. Survivors include a son, Patrick Klafehn of the District; a sister, Mary McGuire of Chevy Chase; and a brother, George Delaney of Irvine, Calif.
Comments: Good Morning Everyone On Saturday, the Arizona Association lost one of it's dearest members. Dorothy Schulte went to God.

Comments: Good Morning Everyone
As we look forward to celebrating the Feast of the Sacred Heart Please hold in your prayers the Kenwood Community and so many alumnae and alumni of the Sacred Heart as they close the last pages of a beautiful, 150 year old story of this very special Convent of the Sacred Heart In the words of Mother Louise Callan spoken in 1937 "Kenwood's history is crowded with deeds of faith and love, high courage and nobility, and sacrifice in its most perfect form"
Kenwood is a special place where so many young women entered the Society of the Sacred Heart and became our Mothers. For the past forty years Kenwood has been a place of peace as so many of our RSCJ went there as a final stop before heaven.
With love and wishes for Happy Trails always, Marcie
Comments: Mariette M. LeBlanc, died on May 8, 2008 in Toledo, OH, where she resided the past few years though the majority of her life was in Chicago, IL. Born Feb. 12, 1922 she was the daughter of the late professor Joseph LeBlanc, Ph.D. and Celeste Lombard LeBlanc. Mariette leaves behind many cousins in the United States and Canada. Miss LeBlanc graduated from Immaculata High School, Chicago, Barat College, Lake Forest, IL, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, where she earned her graduate degree. From her college graduation to her retirement at age 65, Mariette's whole professional life was in an academic setting. In her first four years she taught elementary and secondary students. Her appointment in the late 1940's as a faculty member began a 39 year career at Loyola University Chicago. An administrative career began as both Dean of Women and International Student Advisor. Later she was appointed Dean of Students. In the early 1970's the Board of Trustees appointed her Vice President for Student Services making her the first female Vice President where she served until her retirement. Upon retirement the Board of Trustees awarded Mariette an Honorary Degree of Doctor of Laws. Mariette's professional activities included Commissioner on the North Central Accreditation Association of Higher Education of Colleges and Universities, Member of the Board of Trustees of the former Mallinkrodt College, president of the Illinois Association of Women Deans and Counselors. She received the Victor R. Yanitelli, S.J. award for outstanding service to the profession of student personnel in Jesuit Higher Education from the Jesuit Association of Student Personnel administrators. Outside interest included travel to the east and west coasts of the United States and to Canada, as well as many cities in Europe. Her love of good writers of mystery stories was well known as well as her love of searching out and enjoying good restaurants in Chicago and in the greater Toledo area. Art museums of all sizes and art galleries always held high interest. Mariette's paper weight collection was mementos of the many cities she visited as well as from friends who knew of her interest in them. She gives thanks to Patricia Danford and Joan Neuser and their families for their loving friendship and support, with special thanks to Phil and Carol Toney. She also wanted to thank Dagmar and John Woeller and the rest of her Sunset House family. Mariette will be buried with her parents at Mt. Carmel Cemetery in Evanston, IL. There will be no visitation. A Memorial Mass will be scheduled at a later date. Arrangements by Coyle Funeral Home. Published in the Chicago Tribune on 5/11/2008.

Comments: One of our most devoted alumnae and an AASH Past President, Lenore Thomas Stoddart of Denver, Colorado, died this morning, April 24, 2008. She was a pillar of the outstanding AASH association, the Colorado Alumnae of the Sacred Heart. Ten years older than AASH, this group is celebrating their 85th anniversary on May 18.

The leadership of AASH remembers Lenore with prayerful gratitude and offers her family and the Colorado Alumnae of the Sacred Heart our deepest sympathy.
Comments: I just found out that one of my teachers, Alicia Hopgood, died the 31st of March. She was an alumna, and also taught at Country in Havana, Cuba. She was briefly at Carollton in Miami, one of the people who opened the school to welcome the students from Cuba. She was truly "Sacred Heart" through and through. Please pray for her.
Comments: Every time I've entered a church in a 22 year period, I light a candle for Michael P. Guzzo, my best friend from high school, my first and last crush. Some time ago, Michael contacted me, but certain circumstances prevailed and did not allow us to meet or be together. All these years Michael had been in the Navy, his whereabouts not so far, yet not close enough but never far from my thoughts or my heart.
Comments: Good Morning Everyone It is with deep saddness that I tell you of the passing of Alex Miller, son of our devoted San Diego alum, Jean Miller. Alex went to God early this week. So many of us have been touched by our friendship with Jean, especially those graduates of San Diego College For Women, now USD. She has and continues to be a very active member of AASH. Plese keep Jean and her family in your prayers this Easter weekend. It is devastating to lose a child, but our faith allows us to know that Alex is with Our Lord this Easter. Let me know if you wish Jean's e-mail or home address. Your thoughts will mean so much to the family. Wishing you all a joyous Easter Marcie

Comments: Albany, NY March 12, 2008 Dean Elizabeth Traynor , RSCJ ALBANY, N.Y. Dean Elizabeth Traynor, RSCJ, 94 years, died at Teresian House on Tuesday, March 11, 2008. Born May 28, 1914 in Chicago, Ill., Dean was the younger of two children of William Bernard Traynor and Dean Featherly Knowlton Traynor. Sr. Traynor entered the Society of the Sacred Heart at Kenwood on September 7, 1933 and made her final profession of vows in August, 1941 at Kenwood Convent in Albany. Dean grew up in Chicago where she graduated from the Academy of the Sacred Heart, Sheridan Road in 1932 and received her BA degree from Barat College in 1936. Sr. Traynor held an M.A. in political science from Marquette University and a Ph.D. in economics from Catholic University of America. Sister's years of ministry began in 1936 at Sheridan Road in Chicago where she taught elementary and high school classes until 1946. She spent the next year in her Ph.D. candidate year at Catholic University and, upon its completion, Sr. Traynor went to Barat College in Lake Forest, Ill. as freshman counselor, dean of women and head of the economics department. Her next assignment brought her back to the Sacred Heart School on Sheridan Road where for the next eight years she served teacher, dean of discipline and dean of studies. She returned to Barat College in 1957 and took up the responsibilities of academic dean until 1969, and then director of financial aid before becoming vice-principal at Duchesene College in Omaha, Neb. and then vice-principal and Bursar at Sancta Sophia College in Brisbane, Australia. Sr. Traynor returned to Lake Forest in 1975 where for another 10 years she served as business manager at Woodlands Academy and then director of alumnae at Barat College. Sr. Traynor was a woman of deep religious commitment, endowed with many gifts of mind and heart. Her former students loved her and remember her as an outstanding teacher who touched their minds and hearts challenging them to achieve their best. Sr. Traynor loved God, her life as a religious, her Irish heritage and large, extended family. After her retirement in 1986, Sr. Traynor volunteered part-time in the Barat Alumni office, ministered at Lake Bluff Heath Care Center where she brought joy to elderly residents and taught English as a second language.

Comments: Good Morning Everyone Please read the information below regarding our Sacred Heart family who so desperately need our prayers. As we enjoy our freedom this Super Bowl Sunday, let us make sure we hold the world in our prayers for peace. With love, Marcie Amory Sunday Update on Chad Margarita Bofarull, the Provincial of North Spain was able to talk to Asunta Clausen this morning. Asunta was able to call out on the cell phone of a young woman from Cameroun who is in the house with our Sisters. She wanted to assure us that the community is fine but that there is no communication. There are currently twenty people in the house as well as some French soldiers. They have sufficient food for the moment although they are not sure how long their rations will last. A bomb landed on the school library causing fire damage and another wing of the school also sustained some damage. No one was hurt as these buildings are separate from the community. Marisa Sacerdote was able to reach Asunta shortly afterwards and have a very brief conversation before the line was cut. They have heard nothing of Mariado Górriz who was evacuated early Saturday morning. Yesterday there was another attempt to evacuate people via helicopter but the helicopter was unable to land for fear of gun fire. This would have allowed the other African Provincials to be taken to Gabon. The conflict is centered in N’Djamena, not in the south. To date we have had no communication with the Atrone community in N’Djamena. We will let you know any further news as we are able. Let us continue to be united in prayer.

There have been many expressions of concern about the situation in Kenya following the presidential elections. Reports mention violence in Nairobi (particularly in Kibera) and in the Eldoret area, where some of our communities are located. We want you to know that our sisters are gathered at the noviceship in Mbiko, Uganda for their Assembly/Chapter which began on Friday, December 28th.
The provincial of Uganda-Kenya, Ursula Bugembe, called Clare Pratt on Tuesday afternoon, January 1, to say that a postulant who was traveling to her community in Uganda was turned back at a roadblock, and has taken refuge in a church in the Eldoret area. Another church in the area has already been burned and a number have been killed or injured. Ursula's plea was to do whatever we could to mobilize international pressure to stop this violence.

Comments: To my dear Sacred Heart family Two days ago a shopping mall in Omaha, NE was terrorized by a lone gunman. At this time there have been nine deaths including the suicide of the shooter.

Comments: Good Morning My Dear Friends of the Sacred Heart
I have just returned from San Diego and the devastation of the wildfires in that area. Our two daughters and their families live in San Diego, and we are so blessed to know that they have remained safe in their homes. However, this is not the case with so many of our extended "Family of the Sacred Heart". I ask your prayers for those who have been evacuated from their homes and will not know for days whether they have a home in which to return. I am proud to say that both students and faculty of the University of San Diego are giving their time and support to keep dislocated families as comfortable as possible. These are times when all of us in this great country we call home can come together in a team effort. We are all children of God and blessed to be known as Children of the Sacred Heart. With love and gratitude for your prayers, Marcie Amory
Comments: I ask your prayers for my daughter in law, who is suffering from severe depression and anxiety. She struggles every day, and is undergoing treatment. I ask St. Madeleine Sophie and St. Rose Philippine to help her have trust in our Lord for her healing. Thank you. |
