Because of the death of Rev. Jeremiah A, Riordan, pastor of St. Mary’s Parish, which occurred on January first, plans for the -Golden Jubilee observance of Sr, Mary St. Jerome’s entering the sisterhood were curtailed to a certain extent. Sister Mary St, Jerome entered the sisterhood from Saint Jerome’s parish in Holyoke, the mother church. She derived her name from that church and entered the Mother House of the Sisters of St. Joseph in Springfield on March twelfth, 1891. During her fifty years of toil and sacrifice as a parochial school teacher, Sister Mary St. Jerome has been missioned at Springfield, Webster, Pittsfield, Westfield, Newport, R»I. and Milford, where she has spent twenty eight years. Here in Milford, she has endeared herself to all who have come in contact with her, and has carved herself a niche in the life of Saint Mary’s parish, impossible for another to fill. John Holmes ’41 To Sister Mary St. Jerome On the celebration of her Golden Jubilee March 19,1941 Fifty years thou hast journeyed on the way Serving thy Spouse, the Lord of Heaven.

Fifty years ago this day, the candles gleam ed As clad in white thy vows thou made. Fifty years of thy life the Lord hast reamed As thou passed from youth to age’s shade.
