The Dominican Sisters of Sparkill give thanks to God for the life of our Associate Rose Wojciechowski who entered eternal life on January 16, 2017.
Rose was the mother of Sister Susan Wojciechowsk and an Associate of the Dominican Sisters of Sparkill from 2001-2017. She committed to living the mission of the Dominican Sisters of Sparkill through her participation in cluster groups, liturgy planning, and the baptismal gown program for infants in the hospitals.
Rose was dedicated to being a great mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She was active in her parish as a member of the St. Vincent de Paul Society, helped in their food pantry, and kept a close watch on the clients she was responsible for helping. Rose was a strong supporter of and active participant in the Down Syndrome Association, believing that people with special needs should be empowered to work to their potential. She also was a very good “maker of quilts”—each of her children and grandchildren had a quilt made for them by their grandma. Rose Wojciechowski’s full obituary may be found here.
