ROCHESTER, N.Y. (OSV News) — Two Sisters of Mercy from Rochester were killed in a two-vehicle crash that took place July 16 in Pennsylvania and also involved two other congregation members.

According to a Pennsylvania State Police report, Mercy Sister Joanne Deck was driving a 2017 Chevrolet Equinox SUV when it collided with a 2014 Dodge Ram truck. The crash occurred at 9:53 a.m. in East Township, Pennsylvania, near Erie. The report stated that Sister Deck’s SUV was traveling south on Gay Road and stopped at the intersection of Lake Road. It then proceeded straight through the intersection, at which point it was struck on the driver’s side by the pickup truck.
