Sister Anne Marie Mack, past president of the Sisters of Bon Secours USA, dies at 76

A funeral Mass for Bon Secours Sister Anne Marie Mack was offered April 10 at the Sisters of Bon Secours Chapel at the Bon Secours Retreat and Conference Center in Marriottsville. Sister Anne Marie died March 31. She was 76.

Born in Philadelphia, Sister Anne Marie entered the religious community in 1965 and professed her final vows in 1978. She served for many years in nursing at Bon Secours Hospital in Grosse Pointe, Michigan.

She earned her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Delaware in Newark and master’s degree in nursing from Wayne State University in Detroit.

Sister Anne Marie served as president of the Sisters of Bon Secours USA for eight years prior to joining Bon Secours Health System in 2005 and being appointed vice president of mission for two hospitals in Richmond, Va. She most recently served as senior vice president of sponsorship for the Bon Secours Richmond Health System. She retired to Marriottsville in September 2021. Over the years, prior to becoming president of the Sisters of Bon Secours, she served in many roles in the Congregation, including chairing the Provincial General Assembly, serving as assistant provincial, provincial secretary and associate liaison sister.

“My health care ministry experiences have been important expressions of the gifts and skills that I have been blessed with throughout my life and have enabled me to serve others,” Sister Anne Marie once wrote, according to a news release. “The Congregation of Bon Secours has offered me challenges and stretched me in ways I never imagined. Being supported and affirmed by a loving community of women has strengthened my resolve even further to continue my commitment as I am drawn ever more to our charism and mission.”

Sister Anne Marie was president of the boards of Bon Secours Hospital of Michigan and the Bon Secours Richmond Health System. Additionally, she was a board member of Bon Secours Cottage Health Services, Bon Secours Michigan Health Services and the Sisters of Bon Secours Nursing Care Center as well as the Bon Secours Joint Hospitals Board, the Health Source Board and the Bon Secours Richmond Health Care Foundation Board.

From 2008 to 2011, Sister Anne Marie served as president of the board of UNANIMA International, a nongovernmental organization of women religious serving at the United Nations and advocating on behalf of women and children, particularly those living in poverty as well as immigrants, refugees and the environment.

Sister Anne Marie was also instrumental in the foundation of Cristo Rey Richmond, a school for students in need of a quality education for success in life.

“With her sense of humor and wise directness, Sister Anne Marie was a guiding light for many, and the impact of her leadership throughout the years will be felt well into the future,” Bon Secours Area leader for the United States, Sister Elaine Davia said in the news release. “She will be truly missed.”
