Francis & Padre Laverty

Frances Laverty, wife of Padre Laverty, passes away at age 103

Frances Laverty 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ a half of one of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s most beloved couples 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ passed away on Tuesday at the age of 103.

Frances and her husband Padre Rev. Marshall Laverty 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ the 카지노게임사이트 Chaplain from 1947 to 1983 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ helped generations of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s students and faculty and were famous for welcoming people into their home for Sunday meals.

During the 1940s and 1950s (when Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s was much smaller) every student would have been invited to their home for a Sunday meal, according to daughters Mary Ann de Chastelain, Arts카지노 게임 컬렉션™62, and Lea Rutherford, Arts카지노 게임 컬렉션™70, who can barely remember a Sunday without guests.

카지노 게임 컬렉션œOur father and mother made an incredible team. Dad would invite the students and then our mom would pull it all together. Our mother made it all possible.카지노 게임 컬렉션 said Lea.

The daughters joke Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s got a two-for-one deal when Padre Laverty was hired because Frances worked just as hard making the students feel welcome on campus.

카지노 게임 컬렉션œOur mother was wonderful at introducing everyone and talking to the shy people. She wanted to make everyone feel welcome during those Sunday meals,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Mary Ann. In 1967, Frances and Padre were the first award recipients of to be jointly honoured by the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s 카지노게임사이트 Alumni Association. In 1991, the annual award was renamed in Padre카지노 게임 컬렉션™s honour.

Principal Emeritus William Leggett (1994-2004) says Frances was always working behind the scenes to facilitate the relationships she and her husband became known for building 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ most notably with students.

카지노 게임 컬렉션œShe was a quiet unassuming individual with a heart of gold. Like many women in her era, she took a secondary role to her husband but in many ways she facilitated Padre Laverty카지노 게임 컬렉션™s success,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Principal Leggett. 카지노 게임 컬렉션œIt was Frances who made those (Sunday dinners with students) possible. She opened up her home. Without her support in this and many other ways, much of the legend of Padre Laverty never would have existed.카지노 게임 컬렉션

Principal Leggett established the Padre and Frances Laverty Bursary in 2003 when he heard the Lavertys were leaving Kingston to move into a retirement home in Ottawa. He felt many generations of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s students would want to thank the Lavertys, and the best way to do that was by setting up a bursary to do what the Lavertys were famous for 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ helping students.

A service to celebrate Frances Laverty카지노 게임 컬렉션™s life will be held at the Robert J. Reid & Sons, 309 Johnson Street in Kingston, on Dec. 30.

As expressions of sympathy, the family is asking for donations be made to the Padre and Frances Laverty Bursary, , or to a charity of the person카지노 게임 컬렉션™s choice.
