Sr. Beata

I was in Ramnee way back in the 60s and Mother Beata , as we called
the sisters 'mother'then, was an important part of the life of every
girl in the middle set... firm, loving, a wonderful teacher of
hygiene, good manners, home skills and discipline. We were scared of
her and we loved her.
I met her again in 1998 when I visited Ramnee with a group of
friends.
her passing away is a loss to us all, apart of our childhood passes
away with her. But I know that wherever she is she'll be praying for
her children and we'll forever remember her
May her soul rest in peace

It is amazing to know that Sr. Beata has been around for the students in 1948 to us students of the batch of 1998.

She was a very loving dear person. I tried to keep in touch with her till the end. I had promised her that I will get my husband to some visit her, which I did. She was very happy to meet us. I met her last in June 2005.

I visited Nainital a few times after that, but couldn't get myself to go and visit her and see her sick and in so much pain.

In my last visit I had asked her if she had been happy in India and she said, that it was a life well-lived!

I know that wherever she is, she is surrounded by love and peace!

I am so sorry to hear sbout Sr. Beata she was such awonderful person. The love she gave us was so much ,and to think of it our batch was one of the most mischieviouos . My tears keep rolling down as I write this ,and she must be the last of the German sisters. I was put in her dorm in the 4th grade that was my 2nd yr in Ramnee .May her soul rest in peace , she was a great human being and we loved her dearly and even remember her telling us to go to sleep and to stop whispering when the lights are switched off.

It was really sad to learn of the sad demise of Sr (Mother) Beata. Sr Beata had been with us when I and my brother, Anil, were in Ramsee 1946-1948. I had often visited her in the convent, whenever I happened to be in Naini tal. I and my wife, had seen her last in 2004 and she did remember looking after us in the dormitory. She mended our socks and looked after us when we were as small as 5-6 years of age. I am sure I will miss her a lot when I next go to Ramsee Convent.

She passed away on the morning of July 30, 2006- the passing away of an era. An era of quiet service and dedication.. of selfless serving and prayer. A person who embodied piety and obedience...
We mourn this loss.. for nevermore will there be another like her
