Please pray for the repose of the soul of Sr. Alice Beauchemin, SCIM, formerly known as Sister Marie-Yvonne, who died at St. Joseph Convent in Biddeford on March 13, 2017 at the age of 94. Born in Central Falls, RI, Alice entered the Congregation of the Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, also known as the Good Shepherd Sisters of Quebec, in Biddeford, Maine, in 1947.

Please pray for the consolation of Sister's religious and natural families, friends and associates
