The good shepherd of Linden Street

Margaret Nordbye and her friend, Joseph Pasquarelli. A small group of people gathered outside St. Boniface Catholic Church in the South Wedge on an overcast day in January to remember a friend to the neighborhood. Her name was Margaret Nordbye, and that day would have been her 102nd birthday had she not died the previous August. Those gathered shouted out “independent,” “devoted,” “grateful,” “giving,” and “beautiful” when prompted for words to describe her. They came to dedicate in her memory what might seem the most trivial of objects a shepherd’s crook about 8 feet in height but it was a fitting tribute to Norbye, who had spent some 60 years keeping watch over the neighborhood from her home on Linden Street.
