  • Mrs. Farrell, circa 1997

    LFA Mourns Former Teacher's Passing

    We are saddened to share that Judy Farrell has passed away. Many of our alumnae will remember Mrs. Farrell as a Religion, English and Drama teacher at LFA in the 1980s and 90s. A woman of deep faith and kindness, she remained a very good friend to many LFA colleagues and kept close touch with a number of faculty friends after retirement. Mrs. Farrell bravely battled cancer for many years and was in palliative care the past several months. It is deeply, deeply saddening that family and friends could not be with her at the end because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Plans for a Celebration of Life will be made when such events are again permitted.

    We invite all families to join us as we pray for the repose of the soul of Mrs. Farrell. May her soul, and all the soulds of the faithful departed, Rest in Peace.
