Maria Von Trapp received the news that her husband has a tumor in his lungs. In N.Y. as she walked toward her hotel: ” Quite automatically I put my hand in my pocket and started to say the rosary. Once again this ancient prayer, which has borne up to heaven so much human suffering and heartache proved to be a good, strong friend in need. “ – Maria von Trapp
Speaking about Captain von Trapp: ” An almost personal friendship bound him with Our Lady “ – Maria von Trapp
On his sickbed: “We should tell everybody about the scapular; it is such a consolation.” – Captain von Trapp
