St Patricks Day 2014…we sponsored wvox’s st pats day. An honor..
Some people think that St Pats is about drinking../ for me it is not about drinking at all, it is about Faith…some fun, and Faith in Action.
Memories of my grandfather, who worked the sewers, in Massachusetts, lived in his first home, next to the railroad tracks,the poor Irish..
His kids all struggling, worked two jobs, never went to college, but made it…my dad, a court officer with my mom. Even though my dad died on my 16th birthday..he left an impression of love and service.. of pride and helping…
To that end, we remember those in the Rockaways, in Hurricane Sandy areas, in Breezy Point…those still affected by Sandy, or all backgrounds.
So honored to have met the head of Ireland,and the Prime Minister and consulate while being there. They helped us with toys for kids, and with a training program for locals there…amazing!
So heres to Faith in action..that the color of green brings hope to you in your life, be your Irish or not Irish. To that end we continue…happy St Patricks Day!
