DOME | WINTER 2018 5 ANGELINE AWARD Dr. Cindy Crabtree 2018 Angeline Award Recipient BY KATHY WILLIAMS Dr. Cindy Crabtree, president of Sacred Heart Schools, is the 2018 Angeline Award recipient. Every two years, the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville honor a woman whose life reflects the Ursuline charism: “A contemplative love of God resulting in an openness and eagerness to serve the needs of others.” One could say Cindy’s entire life has been modeled on being open and eager to serve others as a result of her Catholic faith and love of God. One of five children, and the oldest girl, Cindy grew up in the south end of Louisville, and attended St. Clement Elementary School, where she was taught by Ursulines. She graduated from Angela Merici High School (AM), class of 1975. “I was Ursuline-educated from first grade all the way through,” Cindy says. After graduating with a BS in nursing from Spalding University in 1979, Cindy worked in critical care as a nurse. After earning her Masters, then receiving her Doctorate in Educational Leadership in 1997 from Spalding, she was named Sister Janet M. Peterworth, “Saint Angela Merici”, and Dr. Cindy Crabtree Dean of Spalding’s School of Nursing, a position

Cindy explains, “The lay people on campus feel like they’ve been entrusted with something very special, so they work even harder to ensure that the heritage is preserved.” The Ursuline-inspired events continue to grow. The Sacred Heart Academy freshmen are all going to have their retreats on campus this year, in part to build community and understand the “Holy Ground” that they are on.

8 WINTER 2018 | DOME SISTER PAT LOWMAN Sister Pat: A Gift to Bellarmine In recalling the 1968 merger of Ursuline College and Bellarmine College, Sister Pat (Marcian) Lowman said, “It was a must. Neither of us could survive on our own.” Sister Pat had taught at Ursuline College for three years when the merger took place. “I loved teaching there, and later on, it was such a good thing. But it was very difficult at first. We felt we were submerged because we were smaller.” 1 Reluctantly joining the Bellarmine faculty at first, Sister Pat taught history at Bellarmine for 31 years, and soon became a beloved teacher on campus. A lover of sports, Sister Pat embraced her Bellarmine Knights and was the scorekeeper for women’s basketball for 29 years. She retired in 1996, after receiving an honorary doctorate and having the distinction of being the last Ursuline Sister on Bellarmine’s faculty. Sister Pat entered her heavenly life in 2016, but her memory lives on in her fellow Sisters and former students. Paul Hosse ’88 BC, remembers, “She was a wonderful example of not just what a professor or nun should be, but what a human being should strive to be. Rest well, Sister Pat.” 1. Quotes of Sister Pat from Bellarmine Magazine, summer 2008, Forty Years of Merger by Dianne Aprile.
