Thirteen nuns from the Felician Sisters convent in Livonia, Michigan, tragically died from COVID-19, highlighting the virus’s devastating impact on vulnerable communities. These women, aged 69 to 99, had spent their lives in service, and their loss marks one of the worst casualties among religious communities since the 1918 influenza pandemic. The virus, unknowingly brought in by two assistants, spread rapidly through the close-knit convent, claiming lives over a single month. The survivors, unable to hold traditional funerals, faced immense grief, serving as a stark reminder of the pandemic’s ongoing threat.
