Just seeing this. Sister was my first boss out of college. A twenty one year old, inexperienced male teacher starting out at an all girls Catholic school. I don't think everyone on the faculty was happy to have me there, but Sister was as welcoming and supportive as I could have hoped for. She was the perfect balance of serious and joyful. Her kind spirit, enthusiasm for teaching and her smile is what I will remember. I am honored to have worked for her, and to know her. Rest in peace Sister Catherine.

It is impossible to picture Sr. Catherine Robinson without her engaging smile. Sister Catherine Robinson was in a word - joyful .She was joyful about her role as an educator, her vocation as a Sister of St. Joseph, and her opportunity to serve Archbishop Prendergast. As President at Prendie she was a dedicated and visionary leader. How blessed are we Prendie alums for having a woman who was such a wonderful role model. Her memory will be treasured.

I was privileged to work with Sr. Catherine for five years at Prendie. She was always so pleasant and wonderful to work with . I had Activities and tuition. Sister was always encouraging with what we were doing. Whenever we found someone who was having difficulty with tuition payments, Sister would get engaged in trying to help her. Sister was a good person, and I am happy to have known her. Sr. Sheila Foy, IHM

I was so sorry to hear of Sr. Catherine's passing. Not only was she a great math teacher back in the 70's, she was a wonderful principal to work for in the 2000's. The Prendie Community was blessed to have Sister Catherine in our life.

Sr. Catherine was a sweet kind soul! She always had a kind word for everyone she met. She always found a way to make you feel special. She will always be a Panda 🐼! She bled maroon and gray! God bless you sister!
