On behalf of Notre Dame Preparatory School, Sister Patricia McCarron, the school’s headmistress, released a statement on Love’s death:
“The entire Notre Dame Preparatory School community deeply mourns the loss of Yeardley Love, a graduate from the Class of 2006. Yeardley was an outstanding young lady, delightful, friendly and happy. She readily shared her many talents with our community, as a student in the classroom, and as a standout athlete in the field hockey and lacrosse fields, as a caring citizen through her service work. Yeardley was, is, and always will be one of ‘our girls.’”
Love’s family was not available to comment to C-VILLE.
