WHERE
ARE THEY NOW ?
Sr. Mary Mark Bartoo
I am a from a farm family near Wabash, Indiana.
I spent my entire life, all twenty-four years on
the farm. We raised everything from pigs, milking
cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, turkeys, dogs and
cats to kids! As most farmer’s kids, we learned
at a very early age how to work. I had to help milk,
feed the animals and gather the eggs, not to mention
how to drive tractors, do the plowing and many other
needed tasks on the farm. |
I went to Manchester College in North Manchester,
Indiana. I graduated in 1959 with a degree in
history, health and physical education and driver
education. My first two years were spent teaching
in Albion,Indiana. I then came to Our Lady of
Grace Academy in 1961. During that time I worked
on my Master’s Degree from Indiana State
Teacher’s College. While teaching at the
Academy, I decided to enter the monastery and
did so in 1962.
