Mourners Agree: Mother Angelica Touched Many Hearts — and Changed Many Lives

Visitors to the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Hanceville, Ala., share their stories of the EWTN foundress.

Willoughby saw in Mother Angelica what many others also experienced over the years, as they watched her witty wisdom on EWTN: “She spoke to each of us as if there were only one of us before her. And she guided children to see the beauty and truth of the faith and to live for the truth.”
