Sister Annunciata taught, studied in Omaha

Sister Annunciata Muth, an Ursuline Sister of Louisville, Kentucky, whose 59-year career in education included teaching in Omaha, died Feb. 9. She was 93.

A funeral Mass was held Feb. 13 at her order’s motherhouse chapel with interment in St. Michael Cemetery, both in Louisville.

A native of Louisville, Sister Annunciata entered the convent in 1945, professing first vows in 1947 and final vows in 1950. She earned a bachelor’s degree in education from Ursuline College in Louisville and a master’s in education from Creighton University in Omaha.

Her teaching career included three years at the former Blessed Sacrament School in Omaha, from 1957 to 1960, as well as schools in North Platte and Sydney, Nebraska, and others in Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio.

Sister Annunciata retired from teaching in 2006, serving from 2006 to 2012 with the meals for seniors program at United Crescent Hill Ministries, and as a volunteer from 2010 to 2012 at Mercy Sacred Heart Village retirement community (now Nazareth Home-Clifton), both in Louisville.

She is survived by her sister, Dorothea Muth Redmon of Louisville, several nieces and nephews and members of her religious community.
