Catherine Carolyn was born February 14, 1932 at Hendricks, Minnesota to Ben and Florence (Davis) Fasbender. She was fourth of five children. She attended country school near their farm at White, South Dakota for eight years and then attended Mount Marty High School, Yankton, South Dakota. In 1954, she graduated from Mount Marty College, Yankton, South Dakota. At the University of South Dakota she received a Masters in Zoology and Botany in 1956 and in 1959, she received her doctorate in Biology from Saint Louis University, St. Louis, Missouri. Carolyn entered Sacred Heart Monastery in August 1950. She became a novice on June 28, 1951, receiving the name Veronica, and made her first profession on June 29, 1952. She made final profession on June 29, 1955. S. Veronica began her education ministry at Mount Marty College in January 1959 and was engaged in that ministry until May 1978. Prompted by the Spirit to minister to the Native American people, she began parish ministry at Bullhead, Wakpala, McLaughlin and Little Eagle, South Dakota in September 1978. She served as co-coordinator of the Sioux Falls Diocesan RENEW Program in 1992 and in 1996 she began her ministry in Trenton, North Dakota during which time she was assisted by her sister, S. Ann Fasbender. S. Veronica retired to the monastery in June, 2009. S. Veronica was a joyful and prayerful person who was very involved in the Charismatic Renewal. She derived her strength from her study of scripture and this led to a deep desire to evangelize. Her appreciation of the natural world was a constant in her life and she enjoyed camping, fishing and gardening. S. Veronica is survived by her Benedictine community; two sisters, Veronica Reilly and S. Ann Fasbender OSB and a brother, James (Mary Ann) Fasbender, and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents and one sister, S. Bennett OSB.
