Fiesta Faces – Last Night’s Novena
Even with the rain, the former Doyon’s was packed. Father Garaboldi and Father Harrison greeted the participants, young and elderly. Greg Cook’s new baby is adorable. Santo Militello looks healthy and tanned. Tony Testaverde told me about his new Fiesta walking stick that he wants photos of on Friday.
Although the walk from St. Peter’s Square to the end of Beach Ct. was wet, several people followed the statue through the streets to hear Father Garaboldi pray for the fishermen lost this year.
Now we need to pray for sunshine and good weather for the rest of Fiesta!

This weekend at the GGAPIII I will be presenting a video of a conversation that I had with Karen McCormack about her dad, Tony Testaverde. This photo is the last time he carried the statue of St. Peter (in 2007) and as Karen says, he’d still be carrying it now except his doctor said no! He’ll be home this week from Arizona kicking up his heels as usual!
Here is a video clip done by the Times about Tony right before he carried it for the 65th year. —Sharon
