Chmielowska Zofia (age 84), born in Wielowieś on May 14, 1866

I remember the very moment when Mother Columba Białecka arrived to Wielowieś along with Sr. Gertude Łastowiecka, O.P. I also recall the constructions of the convent as well as the funeral of Mother Columba of which I was a part. I cannot forget the impression I had then – hard to forget it even today. The overpowering grieve and tears created such an ambiance as if a family member, a dearest love one had died.

To us she was always so good, kind, cordial, and obliging that very often we called her “Angel.”
