Frances and Friend

Francis Xavier Warde with snowy friend.

Someone provided Francis Xavier Warde with a snowy friend on a winter day.

The plaque with the sculpture.

Francis Xavier Warde is one of the Sisters of Mercy who emigrated to the United States from Ireland to found, among other foundations, the institution which became Carlow University in Pittsburgh, providing a baccalaureate eduction to Catholic women. Perhaps this is somewhat sacrilegious, but I think a woman like Mother Frances Warde would have understood.
