Pleasant Avenue (@118th Street) was also where Sonny beat up Carlo in the street.
That's right, SC. My parents were married in 1958 right around the corner at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church. You would LOVE their wedding pictures. That was my father's Parish as a kid, and my grandmother, who may have been the last Italian born woman on the block, worshipped there every day until the day she died in 1991.
That's a good story about your mom pizza. No one is going to buy this but my grand daughter Mia and My newest grand daughter Sophia there experiences with religion and the church has been so good. Plus their Msgn is a real cool guy.
I am actually considering attending mass with my wife on Sunday's just to watch the interaction that goes on between my grand daughter and the rest of the kids at the family mass.
I don't believe in a god but the service is nice and it's fun to watch.
