Sister Bartz
“She was all just about discovering your inner self, and she was not at all judgmental at all and encouraged you to be the best person you could be,” recalled former student Leola Tsinnajinnie.
“Even after she graduated us in 1996, she was still part of our lives,” said Marvina Chavez. “She was there when my first child was born. She celebrated in a lot of my life experiences.”
Saint Catherine Indian School closed in 1998.
A Rosary will be said in remembrance of Sister Bartz on Friday at 7:00 p.m. at St. Michael’s Indian School’s student chapel in St. Michaels, Arizona. A funeral mass will be held Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. at Sacred Heart Cathedral in Gallup.
