Your prayers are requested for
the repose of the soul of
Sr. Margaret Eleanor Wilkinson, OSsR
who was called home to the Father
on Wednesday, May 13, 2020.
Sr. Wilkinson is the beloved maternal aunt of
Fr. Raymond Lafontaine, E.V.
Sr. Wilkinson served faithfully as a Redemptoristine contemplative nun for over 65 years. After spending time at convents in Ft. Erie and Barrie, she was sent to a new foundation in Liguori (near St. Louis, MO) in 1961, and then in 1991 to Natal Province in South Africa, where she remained for ten years before returning to Liguori. She was diagnosed with cancer in the fall and passed away peacefully in the early morning hours of May 13, with one of her sisters at her bedside.
A private vigil and funeral services will be held at the St. Alphonsus Redemptoristine Chapel, and livestreamed via the Facebook link here.
