It often happens that a call to holiness and devotion to Christ touches the heart amidst immense suffering.

As one of the earliest woman members of Opus Dei, she took seriously her calling to bring the love of Christ to her work and her daily life.

One of history’s most admired figures and one of the great lawyers and statesmen of all time, Thomas More was voted “Lawyer of the Millennium” by the Law Society of Great Britain and named “Patron of Statesmen” by John Paul II.

To this philosophic and cultural achievement, More added the virtues of an exemplary husband, father, and friend, and the detachment and interior peace of a saint.

She was a lighted lamp for all those who lived, worked, or came in touch with her. Her influence now continues to spread around the world as we get to know the story of this remarkable woman. In love with Christ, with Opus Dei, and with her work, she died youthful and happy, a day short of her 90th birthday.
