Mother Teresa and I

Link’s dad met Mother Teresa in person during his travels in India. He met her through knowing some people who knew some people of authority who knew how to make it happen.

This was a statue of Mother Teresa located in the expansive cemetery in New Orleans called the St. Louis Cemetery No. 3. We took this picture during our tour of the city. 

New Orleans sits 1-2 feet below sea level -they get flooded easily, so some tombs are stacked over one another, which was a good real estate strategy.

Mother Teresa was buried in Calcutta, India, and this was one reminder that somebody had done extra-ordinary things while she was alive, in the place of the dead, for the living to see, and.. hopefully emulate 🙂
