These were among the first words of Dr. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira moments after the death of his beloved mother, Dona Lucilia, on April 21, 1968. This website was created to be a place for exploring what it means to be “truly a Catholic lady” by studying the life of this great Catholic woman. We will be focusing on the beautiful book, Dona Lucilia, by Msgr. João Scognamiglio Clá Dias, EP.

“She majestically departed from a life led with honour.”
