Sister Catherine Donohoe, OSU '36
A Wilmington, Delaware native, Sister Catherine graduated from Ursuline Academy in 1936. On January 24, 1939, she was professed as Sister Mary Henry of the Child Jesus. Sister then earned her Bachelors Degree Fordham University in New York. Sister taught in the Lower school here at Ursuline Academy, and was known previously as Mother Henry. Sister Catherine has lived in several Ursuline houses in the Province, but loves the atmosphere here at the Academy. She is often seen tending the roses in the rose garden next to the Convent.
Sister Catherine is also a devoted Ursuline fan. It could be a sporting event, or a concert and she is always there supporting the students. Another of her charms is that she is so well remembered by her Ursuline students. Barely a week goes by that she doesn't receive some floral or culinary tribute at the Convent. She is rumored to know just about everyone in Wilmington. Living the Serviam model, Sister Catherine continues to serve this community well.
