200 SISTER ELAINE REMAINS DEARLY IN OUR THOUGHTS On March 11, 1981, at Maryhill Nursing Home in Milwaukee, Sister Elaine Braunger died of cancer. She was born in Sleepy Eye, Minn. in 1912, and after her schooling, she dedicated her life to the School Sisters of Saint Frances and teaching. For 31 years she taught grade school children throughout Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, and for the past 14 years she worked with St. Joe's students on the high school level. When Sister Elaine began her reading courses at St. Joseph High, she found many students had dif- ficulty in the area, and therefore developed programs to help them increase their reading power. She also enjoyed teaching religion and English courses. Sister Elaine was also involved with the Charismatic Prayer Group for 5 years and a very active member of St. Mary's Parish. In her pastime, Sister chose to relax by sewing, doing handiwork, and playing the guitar all of which she was most talented at. Those who knew Sister Elaine said her to be an outstanding edu- cator among her colleagues and a truly dedicated and courageous lady. All of us here at St. Joe's are grateful for the time and creativity she brought to the school, but mostly we are thankful to have had the chance to meet such a fine person as herself. Sister will be dearly missed by the students and faculty of St. Joe's and will forever remain in our thoughts.
