2/13/05 - RIP Sister Lucia

LUCIA de Jesus dos Santos, the last survivor of three children to whom the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared at Fatima in central Portugal, has died, aged 97.

Her death at a convent in Coimbra, central Portugal, was reported by the Lusa news agency today. She has been described as one of the women to have most influenced Catholicism in the 20th century. The apparitions made Fatima one of Catholicism's most revered sites.
