:)Am getting exited and counting. Only "16" more days for our trip to New York. Will stop in the Throggs Neck first to see an old girlfriend of mine and then out to the Island where most of my family and friends are. Can't wait.

Have a great trip and enjoy. If you're in the old neighborhood drive by 1624 Purdy St. My mom lived there from 1962 until she passed away...my younger sisters went to St Raymonds and were married there. That was a beautiful neighborhood back then.

I lived at 1718 Purdy Street until I was married in 1967. Then moved to Metropolitan Avenue and then in 1979 moved to Long Island.
I, too, was married in St. Raymond's and my children went to school there. We left after their 2nd and 4th year at the grammar school. My brothers went to St. Raymond's too, but I went to St. Helena's.
I plan on taking a tour around the neighborhood.

I understand the interior of St Ray's is absolutely beautiful. I rode the Q-44 by there twice a day when commuting to St Helena HS, but never stopped to go inside.

Mike................St. Raymond's is a beautiful church inside and outside. It's like a mini cathedral.

We took this pic of St. Raymonds a few years ago during a trip to the Bronx.  |

Wheezie........................will call you once we know what our plans are. Hope you're doing O.K. re: job opportunities.
Don't feel bad. My friend just moved here two weeks ago from Tennessee, and she is having a difficult time finding a job. She does office work too. I guess you'll both find one when the time is right.

I went to St. Raymonds many a time for mass when I visited my aunt....I can remember, as a small boy, listening to the choir....I didn't understand where the music and voices were coming from......sounded like from Heaven.
