Obituary: Sister Lorraine Oswald 3, 1933 - 9, 2016 Lorraine Marion Oswald was born in Chicago to parents who had emigrated from Germany. Even though they stayed closely connected to relatives in Germany and spoke German in the home, the Oswalds were American through and through. The polling station for their voting precinct was in the basement of the Oswald home. Is it any wonder that Lorraine grew up to have a keen interest in what was going on in the world and a strong sense of civic responsibility? An equally important part of the Oswald family life was their Catholic faith. It provided the lens through which Lorraine viewed the world around her and a call to use her gifts to help make the world a better place. As she expressed in a recent interview, I always felt that I wanted to be involved in prayer and service, that that would be my life. Mr. Oswald worked as an electrician to support the family, and was good at fixing things around the house. He passed on to both of his children his love of working with his hands, his skills with tools, machinery and his knowledge of basic maintenance, and a practical approach to life. He also passed on his love of fishing. Lorraine and her brother bought a lakeside lot in the Channel Lakes area and she had many happy memories of vacations spent fishing with her father and brother. The School Sisters of St. Francis were Lorraines teachers throughout elementary school. Lorraine loved them and felt she was being called to be one of them. Ever practical, she thought it would be a good idea to test her vocation by going to a non-Franciscan high school. So she enrolled at Notre Dame High School and met the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. Lorraine soon read the life of Julie Billiart, the foundress of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, and was immediately drawn to her spirit. Lorraine said, Here was a woman, a real woman: down to earth, practical. Lorraine joined the Sodality through which she learned to pray, to read scripture, and to meditate. She was invited to join the Good Counsel club which helped students think about their future life choices. In 2009 Lorraine wrote, The Sisters I knew while I was a student at Notre Dame High School in Chicago had a spirit that filled the space around us. Eventually I recognized it as a spirit of love, joy, simplicity, and dedication. It was a spirit that spoke to her heart and by the time she was a senior it was clear that her vocation was to the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. Lorraine entered the community in of 1951 and became known as Sister Anthony Mary. She started her teaching career with the kindergartens at the Summit Country Day School in 1953. Working with an experienced Sister and 80 children, she experienced what teaching and learning were all about. Sister Anthony Mary went to the fourth grade boys next, and then fifth grade girls and the high school typing class. She loved teaching and community life, but her health was not good. When surgery did not solve the problem, it was decided Lorraine would leave Notre Dame, go home to her family, and focus on recovering her health. It was not Chicago Lorraine returned to in 1956, but Itasca, Illinois where her father had built a home and moved the family. Lorraine found employment with Deinert Import Export as a secretary. At the same time she enrolled at DePaul University to continue her studies towards a teaching degree. She found a clerical position on campus to help with expenses but soon another path opened. Her mother told a census worker that Lorraine was living with them and working on her teaching degree. The census taker knew the Itasca Public Schools were very short of teachers and passed along the information about Lorraine. Soon she was recruited to teach sixth grade and quickly moved up to Junior High. She taught in the Itasca system through the spring of 1964. During her years in Itasca, Lorraine completed her Bachelors and earned cum laude honors with a Master of Education. She made close friends among her co-workers, learned to drive a boat on the lake, and continued her hobby of photography, which had started in high school when she sold enough subscriptions to win a camera. Lorraine helped start a Girl Scout Troop in Itasca, taught in the CCD program at her parish, sang in the choir, served on the Welfare and Ethics Committee of the Illinois Education Association, and regained her health. Her life was filled with prayer and service, but she missed community and felt that Notre Dame was where she belonged. Lorraine entered again in of 1964. two weeks as a postulant she moved to the novitiate and was known for a short time as Sister Mary Anthony. She quickly learned that things were not the same in Notre Dame as the renewal called for by the Second Vatican Council was already beginning. One of the first changes was the opportunity to return to her baptismal name, which Lorraine did. She felt things were more open in Notre Dame. She appreciated the increased dialogue, and she felt freer and more able to express herself. Lorraine continued teaching until 1998. She spent 29 of those years at St. Alexanders in Villa Park teaching Junior High Language Arts and Religion. At various times during those years Lorraine was involved in curriculum development, oversaw the Safety Patrol program, and helped with administrative duties including scheduling. She was involved with the United Farm Workers and Network, serving as the Network coordinator for the 11th Congressional District for a couple of years. Many of the summers in the 1960s and 1970s found Lorraine doing coursework or workshops to maintain her continued... |
