I had many good teachers as a student many years ago and Sr. Clement was one of the best. I was fortunate to have her as my teacher for two full years (7th and 8th grade) at Holy Family Catholic Grade School in Kansas City, KS, where she also served as principal. No other teacher had more of an impact on my religious and secular education, and I remain most grateful for that. Eternal rest grant unto her, Oh Lord.

O Lord,
the God of mercies,
grant unto the souls of Thy servants
the anniversary day of whose burial we are keeping,
a place of solace,
of peaceful rest,
of glorious light.

Through Christ our Lord,

Amen.
