Angela’s story as told to Heather Atwood from the Blog “The Other Cape”:

Angela’s father was a German prisoner in WWII.  His mother prayed to St. Anthony for his return.  When he arrived back in their village, Angela’s grandmother vowed to always honor St. Anthony.  She continued celebrating the Feast of St. Anthony her whole life in Porticello.  Angela and her family now continue that tradition in this country
