The Alflen family welcomed their newest member, the fifth of what would be ten children, on June 13, 1932. Given the name Rose Mary at her Baptism, after her maternal grandmother, this middle child learned early on how to hold her own in a large, boisterous, and happy family.
At the time of her reception into vowed life, she was given the name Laurena, in honor of her mother, a name she retained for the rest of her life.
