(1942 – 2015) Sister Susan Marie Ouwerkerk was born on May 8, 1942, the only child of Arnold Ouwerkerk from Leyden, Holland, the Netherlands, and Edna Irene Anderson, from Bay City, Michigan. After trying for ten years to have a child, her parents had gone to see Father Solanus who blessed her mother and said she would bear one child. After Susan’s birth her father became a Catholic because he believed they needed to be united in faith as a family. More about Sister Marie Ouwerkerk (pdf)
