New York City-St Patrick's

At The Epicenter of Catholicism,
St Pat's. to pay my respects.

 The doors to St. Patrick’s Cathedral swept open in 1879
and since then the gothic-style Church has seen its share of renovation.

The Basilica, today, Under  Another Construction- is a bit less pious, but the Landmark prevails.

I haven't visited here since January 2013:



We made the trip to Manhattan for my Mother's funeral at Saint Patrick's Cathedral. She didn't want a big service but we chose the largest decorated gothic-style Catholic Cathedral in the United States, recognized throughout its history as the  center of American  Catholic life, because we loved her so much.

A Few Good Reifs' 
.The accumulation of birthdays is the leading cause of death in the USA, although she lived only 84 years, she had a great run. The last time the whole family got together at The Cathedral was at my Dad's Service. RIP Mom-And Dad.







When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me, Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be. And in the hour of darkness, She is standing right in front of me, Speaking words of wisdom,Let It Be...
