November 15, 1934 – July 22, 2024
Please pray for the repose of the soul of Sister Patricia Supple, CSJ, who entered into Eternal Life on July 22, 2024 in Los Angeles.
Pat Supple was born in Los Angeles and was educated by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet at Transfiguration School, St. Mary’s Academy and Mount Saint Mary’s College. After graduating from St. Mary’s, Pat entered our community in 1952 and received the name Sister Michael Patrick, which she kept until 1981 when she returned to her baptismal name.
In addition to her degrees from the Mount and the University of Maryland, Pat studied in Rome, Italy, in 1984. She described it as a “marvelous year spent studying and traveling. Scripture was never the same for me after visiting the Holy Land.”
In her many years of ministry in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles Office of Education and interacting with state and federal school officials, Pat was known for her unstinting service to improve the quality of life for children.
We remember the way she strived for excellence. Pat was humble, gentle, hard-working, friendly and joyful. We will miss her.
