SISTER DOMINIC SIEBENMORGEN

Sr. Dominic made her monastic profession on June 24, 1937. As a Novice she received schooling in monastic subjects, and then took courses in homemaking to prepare for her ministry as homemaker for sisters on missions. She excelled in this ministry, serving for fifty years as cook and housekeeper.

Her first assignment was as homemaker to the hospital sisters at Morrilton. She also served our school sisters at seven different locations. In addition she twice was cook and housekeeper at the Bishop’s residence in Little Rock, worked in the Subiaco Abbey kitchen, and also served St. Scholastica Academy. Upon her retirement to the Monastery in 1987, she continued to help with household chores.

She is survived by a sister, Hilda Siebenmorgen of Conway; a brother, Justin Siebenmorgen of Conway; and two sisters-in-law, Helen Nabholz of Conway and Carolyn Siebenmorgen of Little Rock; and members of the monastic community.
